I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    I have also found that sometimes you can browse to a remote community to get the federated subscribe option. I’m at lemmy.einval.org, but I can go to another community by browsing like this:

    https://lemmy.einval.org/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

    This doesn’t always work, and seems to require performing that search you mentioned first to make it work consistently. Then it can be browsed to directly.

    I hope this is improved on in the future.
