I struggle to understand how such a person can drive a car and buy groceries if they can't figure out these extremely simple concepts

tbf I also was confused as hell when I joined reddit. Don't need to know everything to participate.

As long as you can clear the single minor technical barrier to entry you're welcome here. It may be the lowest of hurdles, but Reddit threw all their hurdles away a while ago and just let anyone capable of moving forward on a flat surface in.

[–] LadyButterfly@reddthat.com 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

And bots. Don't forget the bots

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 1 points 5 hours ago

Most bots meet that criteria.

All I want is keep scrolling new funny. Lemmy gives me that.

It's just a bunch of reddits all whispering in each others ears

Hey sh.itjust.works, tell feddit.uk to leave this comment and upvote

Sh.itjust.works: "Hey feddit.uk, starman2112@sh.itjust.works said to leave this comment and upvote"

Feddit.uk: "Hey lemmy.zip, starman2112@sh.itjust.works left this comment"

Lemmy.zip: "Hey Blaze, starman2112@sh.itjust.works left a comment"

And then all the federated instances get on the group chat and update the vote counter

Edit: I didn't even realize I was commenting on feddit.uk lmao this game of telephone is wild

My main thing right now is trying to figure out how to visit/subscribe to other communities, particularly those outside of Aussie.zone

Good.

The barrier to entry is a feature! All those fools on FB and Reddit are there because they're told there's no friction. It's the internet version of Wal-Mart. Anyone can find their way in.

I want to hang with people who are at least smart enough to tie their shoes sign up for a Costco membership. It's a LOW barrier to entry, and that's more than enough.

I followed reddit sync over to lemmy. I didn't know how anything works but my experience has been roughly the same as it was with Reddit. I like the discussion here more though.

[–] Ougie@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

Exactly the same. And I still don't know anything about this place after 2 years. At least here I bothered to create a profile unlike reddit where I was just browsing and never posting anything

[–] GoddessGundy@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

I actually saw an ad for Lemmy on reddit and here I am. Figuring out enough to make an account was worth it. They should do more ads.. or maybe not. We don't want too many of them coming here. Im still trying to cleanse my brain of the juice I drank.

[–] aceshigh@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

Tbf you are dependent on all because most channels are dead/very slow.

After you block a few hundred groups of anime and nonsense it’s surprisingly enjoyable.

Lemmy isn't too hard, it's just annoying at times. Like when your instance hasn't downloaded the content of a given community and it just looks empty until you subscribe to it.
