I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

    is this an issue with the federation of lemmy? or do you think this is a one-off for you?

    i’m still wrapping my head around it a bit. i signed up on lemmy.world and it was seamless, but i honestly don’t know the scope of lemmy, how far it goes, or if i should have signed up on a different instance.

    editing to add: i found this post and thought it might solve your issue? https://lemmy.world/post/335116

      I’m the same way. A buddy of mine sent me a blog post that was essentially lemmy and federation for dummies. It helped me get started and I’m also on lemmy.world but not sure where to go from here. I’m down to leave reddit though.
