Yes that’s true and I’m sure it isn’t that bad. I just don’t like the way they are trying to force their browser on everyone which is why I try to avoid Edge as much as possible. It’s kind of a personal principle now. Microsoft likely doesn’t care about that though since, as you said, they are successful with that technique.

This definitely has some Microsoft Edge vibes to me.

Would be really cool! Until then I enjoy Lemmy as it is. I’m happy to have found this place including the awesome community here.

I also wouldn’t want them merged. But I would find it great if I could kind of curate my own “front pages”. E.g. creating a page for myself called “Technology” and adding all the tech communities that I follow to it so that I can see all posts in one place.

I feel you. On Reddit I was always afraid to get 1000 of comments telling me I’m stupid or how could I do xyz. I really like it here on Lemmy, everyone is just so welcoming and not at all mad that so many of us (former) Redditors are joining.
