I tried out a growing Reddit alternative, Lemmy, for a week, and its clear that federated apps aren't ready to replace Reddit yet.

Yeah, this describes my experience so far. I really want to like it here, but so far it’s been an effort.

I am using Mastadon more, hopefully with time we see a similar level of polish. However, even there it don’t see a dent in Twitter.

    The way I see it is, do you even want the general population on here? Maybe it’s a good thing they can’t figure it out.🙃

      Definitely don’t want it popular enough for bots. But more engagement in niche (or non-techy) subjects? Yup.
