    I don’t know how, but Lemmy is the least confusing to use application within the Fediverse.

    I’ve only used Lemmy and this is a scary thought.

    I know some people don’t want it anyway, but if there is ever going to be a mass exodus from the corporations to the fediverse, fediverse needs to seriously work on the sign up process. And can’t threaten defederation every 5 minutes, which probably means they need proper modding tools/features.

      Well, they just need to make the applications work exactly like their alternatives. Mastodon should show a random feed across the entire Mastodon Fediverse. And Matrix/Element should have a “Discover” section to allow you to browse the entire Matrix, and needs DMs

          They don’t really work like Discord DMs… Maybe that has changed since I last used Element though.

            idk what you mean by that… you can send messages or files to eachother, just like on discord. What else is there?

              They aren’t in a separate section as far as I remember. And you couldn’t have Group DMs.

                There’s a setting to put them into seperate sections and aside from that, Element isn’t the only Matrix client. And for group DMs you can just make a group chat.
