Stop Complaining about Lemmy (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

For every person that is complaining how difficult is to use Lemmy and that is not "user friendly". This is how the internet started back then , everyone was confused and they had to learn how to use. Embrace the change , embrace the new federated social networks and it will eventually get better. Share ideas for new features and report bugs. And for God's sake stop complaining!!

A key component you are disregarding is that the internet was much smaller and pioneered by tech-savvy enthusiasts well into the late 90s. People her were perfectly willing to invest gyrations to make something complicated work.

Those days are gone. Though you may consider it entitlement people, generally, expect things to just work. They don’t want, and arguably shouldn’t have, to figure it out. Friction is friction and people have every right to express their discontent with friction.

I’ll argue that you insisting that people stop complaining places you in the same category as /u/spez.
