Let me know if this is appropriate for this community.

I’ve been collecting links to post, blog, article, comment, etc that criticize the fediverse, whether it’s about the specific apps or fediverse in general, whether it’s about the technical aspect or about the social aspect.

If you also found one, feel free to share it here.

    Unfortunately, this basically translates to “if you know the secret handshake, you can make it better”. New users don’t know the handshake, and more casual users aren’t going to bother looking for instructions on how to do it.

    No, I’ve seen quite a few people saying they only use Lemmy through Voyager or Boost, they never see the Web UI.

    Both are quite good UI wise, hence my question.

    They already struggle with the idea of there being different URLs.

    Hopefully this will be solved in version 0.20: https://feddit.org/post/5390705
