Are we committed to Lemmy? or would we move if something better comes along? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I'm hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don't love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren't out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

My server is still on 0.17.4 (I think due to major security issues with 0.18.0) and the experience is AWEFUL. I also do not want an app but a web interface. Wefwef seam promising.

Also Lemmy needs a lot more content. I hope it will come but I fear the future will be a lot more fragmented. Some of my subreddits moved to their own Discourse instances which are not federated unfortunately. Having to check 10 forums is really annoying.

You can subscribe to their RSS and use a feed aggregator so you don't have to checkout every single website everytime

Tell us more about this. I am interested in that idea but I don't know how or where to start.

For a quickstart: you install any RSS reader and subscribe to your favorite feed. For reddit feeds you can add "/.rss/ to any subreddit URL and use it in your reader to subscribe. Example: /r/lemmymigration/.rss. For other sites google should help you.
