For everyone new to Lemmy, how are you finding the experience?
I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?
I'm a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It's definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it's great to see something that isn't Reddit growing in popularity!
You're viewing a single thread.
- I have to scroll all the way down to comment
- I can't collapse comments
- I need an app :/
Apps are in an early state, but they exist. I can only speak to the Android side of things, but we have Jerboa and it works pretty well so far. And iOS has Mlem, which sounds like it's in a similar situation.
You can collapse comments, it’s the little plus or minus icon next to usernames.
Jerboa for Android is ok. But I get an odd error sometimes when trying to post - "language-not-allowed" - and I lose the comment text. I got into the habit of copying my text before posting.
It happened just now, and I had to go to the website to post this. I don't have a language option on Jerboa, but do on the website.
Edit: changed supported to allowed
If you have an Android phone you can download Jerboa.
In Jerboa you can comment directly on the OP, collapse comments with a long press on the username row.
Try it!
You are using kbin, not lemmy. In Lemmy, the comment box is at the top.
