I'm not sure why Mastodon posts always end up looking so bad on Lemmy. The title is always gored and the post always has hashtags that do nothing in Lemmy. Just because they're technically cross compatible doesn't mean they should be.
I don't understand this claim. Do you have any evidence?
The point is to put your uniquely provided information somewhere else, like Lemmy. Google will figure out how to prioritize this information eventually. Delete it from reddit so that it's no longer the internet's repository of information.
I mean it's fair to say that there have been many performance issues as most of the federations were not prepared for the mass influx of people, and for someone literally brand new and without context it's hard to differentiate between temporary performance issues and fundamental flaws. I agree that all the bellyaching is laughably naive about how quickly websites and services come together and evolve, but we can't pretend that the growing pains haven't happened.
Yeah, same here. Keeps happening. I'd love to learn more about coding so I could help contribute to the app and to Lemmy in general. Right now I just have some rudimentary python but some hands on experience would be ideal.

just installed, huge improvement. Thanks!

Having a hard time joining it for some reason.
Hopefully there will be a Lemmy equivalent to r/fuckcars and r/YIMBY soon enough.
I specifically moved somewhere where we could use more public transit because my climate anxiety was overwhelming me.
I've noticed this by googling my username and finding reddit comments still present that don't show up on my profile.
