I know that the purpose of Lemmy is to be split into instances and stuff to stay independent or whatever, but - imo - if it really wants to become a true alternative for Reddit it needs one place for users to land. Something like “LEMMY.COM” where you can see all instances + all communities, where you can log into your instance, maybe even log into more than one instance at once (let’s be honest, who doesn’t have a separate porn account these days lul)
The thing is, most of us used Reddit until now instead of Lemmy because Reddit did the overall browsing experience a lot better. Yeah it needed the help of third party apps for that, true, but I could just open reddit, look at r/all or my subscribed subreddits and be done with it. Being on Lemmy feels like “oh yeah, this is a great idea, but wow it is very inconvenient to look through this place”
(Btw, I LOVE the lemmy logo!)
Mastodon has the ability to subscribe to Lemmy subs via ActivityPub I believe. Is there not something like this available in kbin at the moment?
@ComputerSagtNein @Nolando I think it’s possible on Kbin to subscribe to Lemmy communities? I’m always seeing lemmy posts floating around on kbin.social but i dont really use kbin so im not an expert.
