It's just something to get the hang of. Currently somewhat confusing, but not insurmountable. It does feel a lot like Reddit did some thirteen years ago. This is a nice blend of modern and easy to use, and has a whiff of my early days on the internet (bb's, forums, etc) without measuring internet speeds in kbps, which is nice.
I wish threaded comments would nest more even though that only plays well with desktop usage. It was the nicest feature of reddit to follow threaded conversations with ease.
I think the biggest issue is going to be discoverability of the largest community for a specific interest. For example, if people are interested in Diablo IV they are going to want to swarm to the instance with the largest community. Making that easy to find will grow communities very quickly.
