As with other things in the fediverse, discoverability is pretty ass. It’s a bit easier on Lemmy to find something you’re looking for than it is, say, to find interesting people to follow on mastodon, but it’s still not great. And often, you’ll find multiple communities on the same topic and you have to try to figure out which one looks like it will be better down the road (communities are still pretty dead and empty, so you can’t tell now which might be better). In addition to that, the interfaces for interacting with Lemmy are pretty rough at the moment, though that’s not surprising.
So do I like it? Enh… I’d say it’s a 4/10 right now with promise of getting better. Will it? Who knows?
I scanned through the comments here and I don’t think it’s been mentioned yet, but I would love, love, love to have an option added to settings to open links in a new tab (or possibly windows if some people would prefer that). The current behavior is to open in the current tab, which I am so unaccustomed to I keep closing the tab when I’m done with it rather than hitting the back arrow.
It’s quite jarring to not open in a new tab these days, especially for external links.
