One of Reddit’s biggest communities is suggesting users move to Discord r/malefashionadvice, the biggest Reddit community still inaccessible in protest of Reddit’s new API pricing, is encouraging its users to congregate on Discord and view guides on Substack.

Thats not the problem. The problem is the usability. Making an account? Finding different communities? Find the right app? Everything really difficult. Thats the problem.

I'm fairly techy myself, not the most techy but I can admin a Salesforce instance, write a wordpress plugin from scratch, I can get by in React...

I've found migrating from reddit to lemmy frustrating. I still don't know if I'm doing it "right". Ive not subscribed to anything, nor tried to track down my old communities on here because it all just seems tedious and needlessly complicated.

Threads is winning over Mastodon because you click a button and it's Twitter but a different color.
