Oh yeah absolutely the app purge is why I’m here. I absolutely despise their mobile app; but on desktop I don’t mind.

The information density isn’t that important to me on desktop since my screen is plenty large and scrolling (or collapsing) comments is easy.

Once upon a time Reddit used to be just a single subreddit. And it was fine. Lemmy already has enough users for separate subreddits to be actually kinda viable, even if they are not too active.

We’ll be fine.

The fact that Bluesky is almost a 1:1 copy (which includes the dumb stuff like post character limit) is precisely why I don’t like it.

I’m an OG user and other than technical issues (most of which have been figured it by now) I prefered both the original redesign and the newest one (though I did like the previous one more, I think).

If you get used to the fact that it’s just a bit different it’s perfectly fine and actually looks better. Especially since it has dark mode.

There are definitely issues with Lemmy but these users specifically seem to just be complaining for the sake of complaining. They want Reddit without the parts they currently don’t like, not realizing that they also need to get rid of the parts that eventually made Reddit go to the shitter - because otherwise it’d just repeat.

It would help of Lemmy had a simple migration option like Mastodon. Then, picking an instance wouldn’t be a big deal.
