Coming from reddit, Lemmy isn't great (lemmy.one)

I appreciate the decentralized architecture and the privacy that comes with it, but it's organization isn't great.

I'm not sure if I understand why certain instances can choose not to federate with other instances. It just seems to limit the content that is accessible to me. I don't want to have to switch between 4-5 Lemmy accounts that I switch just to curate what I to see. Its impractical.

I'm not happy with the changes on reddit and will most likely ditch entirely soon. Lately I've only been using it for tutorials. But at least I wasn't closed off from viewing anything and everything I wanted without sifting through instances. I hope great things come for Lemmy, competitors are great, but in its current state it just seems doomed.

A more positive mental attitude might improve your experience of all things across the board. If this is the energy you bring, it's no wonder you're not happy.

he's trying and he wasn't completely disgracing the place. Just saying its difficult coming from reddit to here. I myself am having the same troubles. I'm bringing a "positive attitude" and trying to learn but this place is much much more confusing than reddit and im not sure i even understand half of whats going on rn. this place is just confusing to the average person. you should have a better attitude towards people adopting this over reddit if you want more people to come here.

Are you going to provide the positive perspective of the same points (not all the other things great with Lemmy, but directly what OPs points were)? Two complaints (if that's what you want to call it) are not any more constructive.
