For me, Mastodon design is unusual even after several years of using this social network. Plus, there are many apps with different UIs for Lemmy and this is not a discouraging factor for new users.
Congratulations. Your question has more dislikes)
Faced on reddit with the fact that many do not understand the joke. They are also too sensitive to the issue of gender and self-identification.
This is not worth mentioning, otherwise they will put minuses in the rating.
Nextcloud as cloud storage (but app it's slow). I also use Lemmy because it is more like reddit than other social networks.
I don't like Mastodon because it has a lot of unusual features compared to traditional social networks.
I have an old model samsung. There is not much free space, and the cache of some applications grows to 1-2 gigabytes per hour of operation (for example, the ibisPaint app).
Also, in some other applications, a large amount of cache is accumulated. I don't know how the cache clearing mechanism should work in these applications, but after a few days I have to clear everything through the application menu, which is inconvenient.
Then it's strange that the offical developers have no interaction with third party designers. It's hard to believe that none of them offered their options.
It is not difficult to open a link with a picture if the user uses Lemmy through a browser.
However, when you use the Lemmy app, it becomes inconvenient to constantly open pictures through the browser.
For me, Mastodon design is unusual even after several years of using this social network. Plus, there are many apps with different UIs for Lemmy and this is not a discouraging factor for new users.
