If I could shapeshift, I'd be too hot for this universe, hence why I can't shapeshift, and no one can prove otherwise 😤
Also, you put it perfectly! Significantly more coherent than what I was trying to say, but that's what I get for trying to comment something that in-depth whilst on my 15 minute break lmao
I'm a transfemme lesbian, and pretty much ever cute girl I see makes me freak out like that. Like, "do I want to be them or be with them?
It's definitely hard to deal with in the beginning, especially if you haven't fully accepted that you're trans. Just to remind you, cis people don't think like that :p
I mean it's not much of a change, considering a minimal amount of activity would result in you getting bombarded with super pushy sign-in popups.
With this and Reddit pulling the shenanigans they are pulling, it sucks to see a large portion of Google's results suddenly become useless, but it's nothing but a growing pain in the path to a more decentralized internet.
I would say we're still in the early adopter phase of Lemmy.
A core feature is that you can visit communities from other instances and sorta cross pollinate between servers, and in the long run I reckon it'll be a major advantage, cause it'll give more granular control over what kinda community you want to be dialed into.
But as of right now, the feature is much more of a hurdle, as it spreads thin the already super low user count.
Assuming the exodus away from Reddit causes people to permanently move towards a decentralized alternative, this should work itself out given time.
