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)

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.
If you’re using Jerboa on Android by any chance, you may just need to enable it to defaultly handle the links. The way you do this is in your android settings:
Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Opening Links > Jerboa > Tick all the boxes

I believe the main developer has agreed that they need to work on this, so hopefully it will happen soon!
I’m of two minds on this - I like discovering other instances, cause they have a different “front page”. OTOH, I feel like there def should be a browser plugin or client that can send you to your instance for any of the interaction stuff. Of course there’s not really a way to do it just in the website code that I can think of.
Nice cat!
