  • I mean, the downsides of the Fediverse have been discussed at length.

    Here’s a routine occurence: i’m browsing around, opening new tabs and such; then i go to upvote something, and it tells me i’m not logged in. This is how i find out i’ve accidentally left my instance. It’s cooked at that point, i’m not going to post that comment, if i really wanted to i’d have to carefully replace the relevant parts of the URL. This keeps happening in both Lemmy and Mastodon.

    I need to 1. Not fall out of my instance as easily, and 2. if i’ve opened a page outside my instance, i need to be able to open the same page in my instance in one click. Anything else is is annoying to me and a complete deal breaker to most new users.

    I don’t doubt that there’s loads of work done in the backend that i don’t see, but from my point of view as a user, Lemmy still has the same problems it had when i joined two years ago. That’s right, it’s been just about two years, the Reddit API debacle was around April-June of 23, and i haven’t seen glaring problems adressed.












  • Currently writing from a Mint laptop, works perfectly with minimal setup and no command line whatsoever, the only annoying thing is that the caps lock key behaves differently. Though Linux’s reputation is that it can probably be modded out.

    I also installed Diodon to recover the cool clipboard function that Windows has.

    I could probably get the customizeable start menu, but i actually don’t miss it that much



  • I had the exact same reaction and i don’t trust that sentiment, i think i’m just hoping for a singular miracle pill that i can take and it will solve all my issues.

    Still thought it was worth a try but even getting an appointment with a psychologist of any kind was tough, so here i am still unmedicated even though i relate to a lot of ADD symptoms
