Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

        So here’s the hurdle I keep running in to here. If I click that link it takes me to sopuli in my browser. I don’t have an account on sopuli, so I can’t like/comment on it. I have to copy the link, go to the search and then once it finds it I can click through and like and comment from lemmy.ml. Mastodon has the same problem but at least in desktop I have browser plugin that fixes that.

          This is probably my biggest complaint so far. The other ui quirks or differences are easy enough to get over and a part of using a new site, but the dance around accidentally “visiting” another instance when you just want to take part in the conversation is annoying.
