I’m a fan of 1Password. Makes it easy to keep all my secrets in one place, behind a yubikey.

The same is not true of Reddit.

If I subscribe to /r/music, I see all post.

If I as a user subscribe to /c/music on Lemmy.world, I get only posts from lemmy.world.

These two are completely different, and that’s why it is going to struggle.

If we can’t simplify this problem, the platform will struggle to gain serious ground.

I think this is kind of a larger problem with the fediverse, and ultimately why it won’t displace Reddit.

If I subscribe to a community called music, as a user I expect to see all posts from the fediverse. Instead what we get is posts from a specific instance. Duplicate isolated communities is not user friendly.

Fediverse atm just feels like a complicated reinvention of forums.
