I find it better because I can choose exactly which feeds, websites, and creators I see all in one feed. Therefore there is little chance of seeing something I have deemed undesirable. I also like it because I can follow people I like on youtube without having to sign in! :) Prior to making my own lemmy instance I would follow specific coms and reddit subs too. Now I don’t do that because I just ban rude people or coms.
Also, I rarely go to new sites. Accessing them via RSS allows me to only read content without ads or trash articles not related to the feed I want.
Finally, it brings all content together. Humans are lazy. It’s hard to go to a ton of different sites to form an opinion. It’s much easier to put it all in one place! :)
