I gave it a go today but not all hardware on my laptop would work. It doesn’t work in Fedora either without RPM Fusion though.
I couldn’t find any way to get IPU6 firmware for webcam to work nor any opensuse stuff for it. Kind of surprising they don’t support it since most every laptop is starting to ship with em.
Ubuntu and Fedora both are pretty painless to get it to work.
The same is not true of Reddit.
If I subscribe to /r/music, I see all post.
If I as a user subscribe to /c/music on Lemmy.world, I get only posts from lemmy.world.
These two are completely different, and that’s why it is going to struggle.

If we can’t simplify this problem, the platform will struggle to gain serious ground.
I think this is kind of a larger problem with the fediverse, and ultimately why it won’t displace Reddit.
If I subscribe to a community called music, as a user I expect to see all posts from the fediverse. Instead what we get is posts from a specific instance. Duplicate isolated communities is not user friendly.
Fediverse atm just feels like a complicated reinvention of forums.
Unfortunately no, it’s not in there either. I couldn’t even find people talking about it on the forums. It’s honestly a bit odd.
