The ephemeral nature of the fediverse is sometimes kinda annoying. It's annoying enough for mastodon, but it's really annoying for community based stuff like on Lemmy. You might have a vibrant community and then -bam- the site goes down. You're stuck with thousands of posts on your instance and maybe dozens of communities just sitting there taking up space.
One of many reasons why I think an alternative to server based communities on Reddit clones probably need to exist.

Minds is a great addition to the fediverse as well. In my view, it's win/win, opening up all kinds of different people.

One thing that's mildly annoying is that minds comments don't throw notifications, so if you're not seeing as many replies as you'd expect that's why. You could probably increase the engagement on fediverse posts by tagging the person you're replying to.
