I'm transitioning to lemmy but it's not easy. I can login to my account with an app, but not with any of my desktop browsers. Following users on other instances is unintuitive. Plus there are tons of fake "official" accounts I can't filter away.
I'm on .world and can log in on a browser, I'm also logged in with sync, jerboa, connect and liftoff.

Lemmy is finally allowing me to login and comment!
Why would you use a link aggregator to follow individual users? That's literally what Mastodon is for, and you should be able to use your Lemmy creds to access it, meaning you have access to it.
