It's neat, though I still have mixed feelings about how to choose which communities to follow. There are many duplicates, and I feel like if I don't subscribe to ALL of them, I could be missing out, but then it increases the chance that I'll see many of the same post (e.g., for a news community).
Content discovery is a bit more work. On Reddit, I never really subscribed to things or sought anything out in specific beyond just using All and scrolling, because it had a nice mix of everything. Here, it seems I'll have to do a bit more work and seek out the type of content I want to see, especially if a user on my instance hasn't already discovered something I care about.
It's also more work to choose an instance. Some instances might block what I want to see, so it's possible I will need multiple accounts.
Overall, I think with some more users and more communities, those gripes will largely go away as some communities in certain instances might become more dominant.
I'm mostly just happy to not see ads, and to know there's not some nefarious company running the service.
Is good 👍
