Just like migrating from Reddit to Lemmy it’s the same as migrating from Windows to Linux, there’s shortcomings and learning curve and the more I use Lemmy the more I hate about Windows, because unlike reddit Lemmy is open source and open source softwares communities is more popular than proprietary communities and people like to shit on them (and I loved it). (Sorry for horrible English)
Okay but why? Is it just because it’s closed source?
There are good closed source softwares out there but most of the popular closed source software are bad not because of their functionality but because of evil and controlling monetization tactics
Because of the metrics, the ads, and the constant “let’s see how they are going to degrade my user experience” dread whenever there is an update.
Personally, I can’t stand trying to troubleshoot obfuscated error messages in current mass-market software. I don’t even think it appeals to the lowest common-denominator. “Oopsie-doodle! Your puter has an owie. 😢 Running a Health Check to see if we need to download more FUN! Sending results to Daddy Microsoft! …”
