Overall it’s ok. The quality of the comments on articles is way better.
The worst part for me as I’ve detailed in similar threads is that the goldrush to claim all the popular subreddit names makes all those places feel hollow. Most have very little in common with their namesakes and are “anything goes!” communities which leads to homogeny. This is made worse by the internet’s apparent need to copy every post from reddit
The other “issue” I have is that with federation comes cross posts and that means seeing the same thing 5 times in a row while browsing All. I don’t blame the posters here but it feels like a missed opportunity to properly implement crossposting (like…one post, multiple comment sections)
