Par for the course. This system will never be immune to things like that. That’s part of what happens when you decentralize your power. Instead of a single target that can be made highly secure, you have a distributed array of targets.
People should certainly be engaging on here with full awareness of the reality of the Fediverse, not expecting reddit 2.0. We never will be able to offer exactly what they did. We’ll be naturally worse in some areas and naturally better in others.
This is why I’m glad I made redundant accounts on multiple instances. When there are problems on lemmy.world, I can just hop on over to another. That’s never been an option with Reddit.
Now if there was only a way to export or sync user settings like subscriptions, it would be perfect.
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing. There was this great bot that was autocorrecting community links and I was hoping this was possible for post-links on Lemmy instances.

That’s fair. I shouldn’t have said “replace reddit.”

There’s actually another thread on exactly this topic: https://lemmy.ml/post/1875767
Is there a way to link posts in the context of the reader’s instance? Like with !c community links?
It’s not great but if you copy the URL into your instance’s search, you can get to the post that way.

I don’t think so, but I’d love to be proven wrong!
