Hi guys. This is not going to be a long post and I will briefly explain why I didn’t like Lemmy and going straight back to Reddit.

  1. Lemmy is not a likable name.
  2. There are so much socialists/communists around, including Lemmy’s founders. Even the ‘subreddits’ called communities.
  3. Every app I tried is buggy.
  4. Lemmy world usually experiences connection problems.
  5. Content is not likable enough. I’m reading Reddit to relax, laugh and chill. Lemmy can’t provide that yet. Memes here are generally low effort.

That’s all and thanks anyway! Catch y’all later!

    1. actually that’s a reason??
    2. I barely see them, but what I did see today was several people saying ‘Fuck the CCP’ with a ton of upvotes.
    3. Have you tried the webapps, wefwef/voyager and … mymlm or whatever it’s called? Those are apparently really good. Remember there was no Reddit app until the community built it, and the apps weren’t perfect at the start either, but they did get there. Have fun using the piece of shit official reddit app, since that’s your only option now.
    4. First legitimate reason. It’s a busy instance. Try making an account on a less busy instance. I am connecting through lemmy.nz and I have no problems. It’s easy to copy communities over with Lasim.
    5. Second legitimate reason. Well, half. If you want better content, why don’t you take the initiative and help make Lemmy a better place? This is kind of like ‘everyone else isn’t doing the work for me.’
