I wanted to get a pulse check on how new members are finding the general experience/website. Is it more confusing than Reddit or are you finding the instance system a better way of doing things as it can give you more freedom of where you choose to create an account?

I’m a new user myself but have found the experience to remind me of Reddit back in the day, lol. It’s definitely giving me old-school yet modern vibes and it’s great to see something that isn’t Reddit growing in popularity!

    I’m new and could be wildly wrong, but it seems like an improved UI could consolidate multiple communities into one “this is my <hobby> feed” so you can participate in all of them. If one dies, you don’t lose everything.

      Yeah, if a community is a "magazine" on here it'd be really nice to collate a number of magazines I'm interested in into a "rack" similar to a multireddit.

        @StrictMachine Dunno if it would even be possible, but it would be cool to be able to somehow be able to categorize each instance/magazine with a limited amount of tags - like each book- or literature-related instance could have a "Book" or "Literature" tag that would basically add it to a view of every single instance with the tag in it, so users could look up tags versus looking up specific instances.
