With recent drivers and recent enough DEs it is usable to a certain extent. There are some known issues documented in the release notes of each version. Here’s for 535. TL; DR the major blockers are: (1) Variable Refresh Rate doesn’t work for some older cards; (2) GAMMA_LUT is not implemented (no night light) and (3) Nested X11 clients have synchronisation issues that might result in some flickering or dupicate frames, it’s more noticeable on things that refresh slowly, although much better recently. Also (4) NvFBC capture doesn’t work for X11 applications within a Wayland session which might or might not be important for some people.
I’m using it with Plasma; it’s OK, no major concerns but my setup is pretty basic.
Edit: Apparently it’s not maintained any more.
It doesn’t look possible to add a different instance. Even trying to add lemmy.ml again shows “Instance not found”.
Unlikely. When users left Digg for Reddit the internet was smaller and the users more technically minded. And even then it was essentially just creating a new account. You need an one stop solution for users to migrate and federation by definition isn’t that. As a result discovery (and growth) is still hard even for Mastodon that’s been around for a while and it’s a relatively mature platform.
So annoying when you run into an interesting project and you realise that the only documentation is a link to Discord.
