oh bro this UI ain’t bad. first comment on lemmy; i’m using Jerboa on android and this is all making me very happy after one day of no 196.
anybody a member of multiple instances? i’m a Mastodon user and only really use one acct there, but maybe this is different (despite being literally the same protocol). the one drawback of the one-account model there is that you only really have easy access to that one server’s “local” tab, and not the others, giving undue weight to your choice of instance, unless you’re using desktop and an extension like FediAct that lets you go to the URL of other instances’ “local” feeds and interact and have the interaction link to your account seamlessly.

why do you care about the local tab? I just go on either subscriptions or all, I don’t particularly care what instances content comes from
in the case of Mastodon at least, the Local tab is a major way to discover new people to follow, or just peek at what’s going on. i don’t think my complaint will hold as much for Lemmy, as it’s about following Communities, not People, and finding the equivalent of a subreddit is worth finding dozens of people.
There’s a good alternative called kbin that can federate with Lemmy and mastodon along with having it’s own communities and etc. Its honestly pretty nice already but I think the UI definitely needs some work on mobile though. It’s also being super slammed on the main instance, kbin.social, right now so the dev disabled federating with Lemmy temporarily.

interesting, thank you thank you for the tip! ActivityPub (the rails all these apps run on) is cool as hell; i just checked and yes I can follow my account right here from my Mastodon. i’m from old Reddit though so the idea of following an account on a Reddit-like is still icky and new but i’ll probably get used to it here in this new setting x3
