Not in the long-run. This is absolutely a temporary issue due to the beta quality of lemmy.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2043

here’s an issue tracker for that, I don’t think it’s really something that fundamentally makes it worse than a forum, honestly.

What exactly does it do worse than one of those?

How is Lemmy not a forum?

Eventually Lemmy will be better than kbin based on the rate of development, I’d say give it another chance in a few months.

Hopefully soon we’ll have the reddit apps.

This is only the case because of these two issue trackers:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1113

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1048

Once they’re solved, using lemmy will not require any additional knowledge than reddit.

I don’t make many changes, so, I’ve just been copy/pasting.

This solves your issue, it isn’t a fundamental problem, it’s a growing pain.

newpipe does support youtube music

It’s been years since they bought it at this point, I haven’t looked into it myself, but i’d be astounded if they weren’t already.

It’

I’d say the fact that it was bought by an analytics company tells you everything you need to know.

Why else would they buy it?

No, goodlock is a samsung thing that just has a bunch of general customizations for the OS meant for power users.

There are no good custom lock screens.

Please don’t use nova launcher, they were bought out by an analytics company. Stick to foss.

neo launcher and lawnchair are the two open source options, I don’t think I could justify using a proprietary piece of software for something that should be so simple.

You need good lock, it changes the game for customization, it’s the reason I no longer feel the need to do custom roms

You also need to use adb to remove all the bloat.

I don’t get why we still haven’t figured out that dictatorships are bad.

Reddit is a content dictatorship, federation democratizes it.

It’s really just that simple.

They basically try to centralize the platform.

No, they don’t, I don’t know why you think that, this is really what federation is all about, seamless communication between servers, all they do is make it so that linking to different posts across the fediverse doesn’t log you out, or remove you from your instance unnecessarily

The other one ALLOWS you to categorize subreddits. Neither of these are bad things in any way, and if you don’t like them, you can manually visit other instances, and simply not use the multireddits.

I like how Lemmy allows for sort of duplicate communities. Reddit already had that issue and people naturally flocked to the communities that had the content that suited them. I think it would behoove Lemmy to stay away from trying to centralize it all.

This won’t change anything about that, it’ll just sort them by category

Building a nice mobile android app Jerboa is pretty good but it needs some TLC. Timeouts happen frequently on my app and crash it/erase content I was reading

this isn’t worth focusing on right now because: https://github.com/derivator/tafkars/tree/main/tafkars-lemmy

Provide better documentation/marketing materials for new users. I’m open to the idea of a centralized website where users can go to create accounts, learn about Lemmy, and maybe initially subscribe to popular communities

join-lemmy definitely needs an upgrade.

This should help!
