I've found that similar communities on different instances can have VERY different experiences in terms of the community and attitude. I know I'm generalizing, but I feel a lot of Lemmy.world instances are more negative and hostile than similar instances on beehaw.org. Personally, I'd rather they stay separate. That way I can be more precise on dialing in the experience I want.

Yes! This is what I'm referring to.
I'm sure most of you have heard a chant/cheer using the tune/cadence I'm talking about, but it's really hard to describe something like this in text. Most of the chants that use this tune starts with "Let's go" and then some two-syllable word following it. For example, "Let's go Jackets" or "Let's go Buckeyes". What I'm asking is whether there's a name for that particular tune/cadence and/or if there's an origin story behind it.
I unsubscribed from the Fediverse community because I just couldn't take the constant hate and complaining. Now I'm seeing it in all of the general technology communities. I get that a lot of people have major issues with Meta and Threads, but I'm seriously tired of it taking over my feed. Personally, I enjoy Threads. I also use Mastodon, but the reality is there's a lot of groups of people who aren't on Mastodon, and Threads has given me a way to follow them again. That's something I'm grateful for.
I switched over to a personal Lemmy instance I started, and push notifications haven't worked since doing so. I have the setting enabled in the app; I'm just not getting any notifications. Is there a way to try and diagnose this further?

Just don't say anything bad about the Fediverse (or anything good about Meta/Threads). That's when the toxicity with appear. That's what I've noticed, at least.

I've pretty much completely left Reddit since Apollo shut down. I'm happy with Lemmy, so far, except I'm honestly getting tired of the somewhat elitist attitude and fear/anger towards anything that isn't in the fediverse. I noticed it when I left Twitter for Mastodon too, and it's kind of getting old.
I'm not saying some of what's being said isn't justified, it's just not what I feel like seeing every time I open the app/site.

What does this option enable/disable in the settings? I've toggled it on and off, but can't see where something changes.

I don't think it's too busy at all. It looks great on my home screen.

I am in the beta, and I am using compact mode. Is the bookmark button only available on the larger mode?

I've been keeping all the various Lemmy apps in a folder on my home screen and switching between them to get a feel for them all. So far, I haven't found any that are perfect (nor would I expect to this early on), but Memmy is definitely up there.
Is there an easy way to bookmark a post from the main feed? From what I can tell, it isn't possible to do so using any gestures. Personally, I'd find more use out of bookmarking posts with a gesture than I would being able to reply from a gesture. I rarely reply without actually opening the post first. The same can't be said regarding bookmarking one.

Do you have any more details on this (or know where I can find more). I'm currently trying to decide which Lemmy app to use, and would be interested in reading more about Mlem's history.
Is it possible to search posts? The search tab only seems to search communities.

Would you be able to give a brief overview of what your tool does? I feel like it's perfect for my situation, but am new enough to all this that I'm not exactly sure what the tool does.

Is there any way to see older posts in a situation like this? I created my own instance, and am only seeing the most recent handful of posts from communities I subscribed to.

I've noticed the same thing when I switched to my newly set up personal server.
