You’re right. Going down through the levels of “okay, and why?” works on a theoretical level but requires both the person asking the right why-question and a level of intellectual honesty from both parties that is incredibly hard to find.
It’s not a bad approach for questioning your own beliefs though, if you can muster the strength to be honest with yourself.
Public transport is the real killer for me. It seems bizarre to me now that there was a time I could stand on a bus or train and comfortably just hold the support handrail with a bare hand and not wash it afterwards or anything. These days I avoid them at all costs and still gotta carry disinfectant for mental health purposes.
Oh god the lingering germophobia as a result of the pandemic shining a massive spotlight on surface contamination and spread vectors has completely ruined me.
That’s correct though account migration is planned for some point in the future, or at least noted as a desirable feature by the Devs. Maybe even linking accounts across instances?
Having to resubscribe to all your communities is annoying but I imagine third party apps could streamline that process when they get released/refined.
Jerboa was unstable to the point of unusability when I first started using Lemmy but I’m checking it out again now and it seems to work at least. Not quite Boost though.
I’ve been using WefWef to tide me over but it’s not what I’m looking for and it’s missing a lot of stuff still.
EDIT: Jerboa is still extremely unstable and in addition to crashing it suddenly thought I was not logged in while refusing to let me log in. It’s the most Boost like interface but for now I’m sticking to WefWef and also trying Liftoff.
