Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)

Which community are you referring to? I want to see if I can figure out how to do it on my end. (I haven't had any issues subscribing to communities, but that might be because my instance is already linked to the communities I'm interested in or whatever)

It was the one about KDE users, but don't worry, somehow it showed up in the search results this morning, so all is good. Thanks anyway ๐Ÿ‘

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe if you're the first user from your instance to access a specific community from another instance, then it will take a while for everything to sync and become ready for you. So it should generally work out fine if you just wait for a bit.

I do agree that the UX could be improved in this case, thoguh.
