Reddit refugees be like "Why isn't this Reddit and when will the devs LiStEn To ThIeR uSeRs AnD mAkE iT rEdDiT"
Seems pretty similar to Reddit to me, besides the whole decentralised nature which is a plus anyway
What are people complaining about?
If you go to the areas where people are suggesting features, it's almost 100% "please implement my personal favorite feature from my personalized Reddit experience."
Now, I'm going to say that wanting the features you found useful in your old social media is a perfectly reasonable desire, but it's the Dev's job to make sure all the feature and UI changes are self-consistent and not overload for the user. So, naturally a bunch of requests are going to have to be ignored, at least for the time being.
I first made an account and saw that one of my 2 favorite features of Apollo is built in (at least in .world, I'm not sure if it's the same everywhere) and it just made me so happy. ๐ฅน
(Rainbow lines on the side so I can keep track of who the heck is replying to who in long chains.. The grey lines on official reddit make my head hurt, haha.)
