No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I’m hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don’t love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren’t out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

    I like to remember how ugly and difficult it was to adjust to Reddit after moving from Digg’s slick 2.0 interface. I think Lemmy will face more growing pains but will be the best solution in the end.

    Reddit has literally never had a good UI/UX. It was worth it because it was the best alternative at the time.

    That said, my requirements for a reddit alternative would have to be decentralized and open source. I just couldn’t get into another situation like this one and I won’t support it.

        They’ve already begun work, and I’m excited to see it too! SyncForLemmy and Artemis are my top two right now
