  • Active communities for specific video games that I play. There are general gaming communities that are active, but I’d rather be able to discuss specific games without having to start my own thread every time.

    Tech communities that aren’t just “Windows bad, Linux good”. I get Lemmy is more likely to attract technical-minded, FOSS fans, and that’s fine, but the amount of Linux zealotry is annoying. I’ve dual booted for 20 years now, but people here act like Windows is actively murdering your pets while Linux “just works” and it’s… Just not true.

    Communities for my area. I could make them, but I have exactly zero interest in running a community, let alone one for people I could know irl. I don’t have the time to manage or grow a community, and completely lack the desire even if I had the time. My city, county, state, job, and school all have active communities on Reddit.

    Acting like Lemmy has it all when it’s total active user base is a fraction of some major subreddits active subscriber count is… Delusional at best. I want Lemmy to work and be a replacement for reddit. I miss early, smaller reddit even. But Lemmy just isn’t it yet.


  • The audio panel is definitely an issue, but Ear Trumpet solves it. I know relying on a third party solution for a system function isn’t ideal, but Ear Trumpet is too good.

    Idk, I like the new start menu, especially once they added folders to it. I rarely need to see everything in my start menu and having my most used stuff right up front is nice. The only thing I wish is that I could completely get rid of recently used files on the bottom half.

    If the menu nesting is referring to what you get when you right-click something, then yes. That can die in a fire. I don’t know who thought that was a good idea, and it’s wild because many people thought it was. Something like that doesn’t make it to production before passing teams of people.
