DB3 was kind of a mess with the keyboard but I’m finding it more stable now.
Looks also like there was a fix to a bug when on an active call where the screen would flash randomly - now it stays steady. Must have been a bug in the new active call screen that got squashed.
DB4 seems more stable and also seems to be a little more battery friendly from what I’ve seen so far.
So basically, I agree with your points as things I have also noticed so far.
I have a lemm.ee account and a lemmy.world account. They are exactly the same as far as subscriptions go, my feed remains essentially the same, they’re just for when one has server issues, goes down for maintenance, or is laggy I have another with the same feed to keep my experience pretty much the same.
So you’re saying you don’t want insightful, thoughtful comments from u/rimjob_steve this time around?
The ads are real bad if you don’t pay to not see them, and trending is dumb, but the most egregious thing is that you can’t sort your Home feed. It is stuck to “best” and the algorithm is terrible.
It used to have the ability to sort, but they removed it at some point, I’m not sure when because I had been using Apollo for years.
I took a look at the last iteration of Alien Blue (which can still be downloaded if you had it at some point but you can’t log into it anymore) and that 2014 app is still better.
It just makes me sad.
Three total, but was using lemmy.world as my main until recently with all the groaning under the pressure of all the new signups so yesterday I spent about an hour or so methodically recreating my subscribe feed on lemm.ee
Nothing at all against the admins over at .world but when it’s pushing the absolute limits of capacity with all the new people coming by, it makes for a different experience all together on a smaller instance. Course because it’s hiccuping over there I’m seeing some significant delays in federation but whaddyagonnado.
Didn’t you just question the decision to defederate from exploding-heads a week ago when the users there were posting racism, hatefulness, bigoted speech, etc?
If you didn’t like that defederation, why do you want another defederation? Sounds hypocritical.
It’s because a lot of people migrating from Reddit landed on .world and created or found their familiar named communities and that’s how it was on Reddit - US centric top level type communities.
Is .world the best place for US centric communities? Maybe not just based on nomenclature but since you asked why, that’s the reasoning. It’s in the description of Politics specifically (it even calls out migrating Redditors).
