I’ve got it figured out enough for now, but still can be hard without using Lemmy Explorer to find things. I am hoping some apps like Memmy can incorporate better search functionality. There is so many that have similar/same names and its annoying finding the active one.
Also gets a bit weird thinking “Oh just found this cool community” and then seeing i need to make a new account, i understand it though.
I like it so far. But I think the large amount of reddit users won’t like how separate everything is. Most of my friends and colleagues I’ve mentioned and shown it to, didn’t like it for that one reason. Reddit is a singular easy to access place with communities for everyone that is popular.
Fediverse (Lemmy in particular) needs to simplify I think for people to be able to adapt to it. My girlfriend made an account and is having trouble finding groups for herself, but willing to take the time cause I’m next to her all the time. But not everyones got that.
edit: also, i am using Memmy for Lemmy now on IOS, nice to have when not at my PC. Good app so far.
I salute your efforts for working on it anyway
