I just did a full wipe of my system to try out Fedora KDE, XFCE & Budgie spins (I finally got fed up with Gnome not being what I wanted anymore after like 15 years of using it as my preferred DE) and didn't really have the same experience at all - even Fedora XFCE which you say was completely broken was working fine for me. I haven't run anything other than Fedora in a long time though so I can't really speak to the out of the box experience on other distros.

yeah I know, it's still missing kinda basic stuff like moderator tools (or if they're there I can't find them, which is another problem) and I find the overall UI less intuitive than the web app. I know it's in the early stages and I'm not trying to shit on the app or devs in any way. just doesn't seem like the best way to use the platform at the moment.
had no idea about this, I've been using it in the browser because Jerboa is clunky and still lacking a bunch of features, thanks for the tip
definitely, the doom n gloom attitude on my city's subreddit really bugs me actually. hoping when a Lemmy community for it pops up we can avoid that. but regardless it's a great way to find out about local events or cool restaurants to try or just fun stuff that's a little more off the beaten path
I created a Grateful Dead community on lemmy.world, we've already got a few people participating and I'd love to see it grow

music discovery/discussion. I found so much cool music on reddit communities for bands or genres I like
resources for learning about & discussing some of my hobbies and interests like FOSS software, Linux, gaming, guitar etc
communities for people local to the city/state I live in
I'm optimistic about the infosec/sysadmin etc communities on here growing pretty quickly, it'll still take a while for them to get to the level they were at on reddit but I feel like they'll grow faster than some of the other stuff on here
not a mobile app but Spicetify for desktop might have an extension that does what you're looking for.
