I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.
Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.
Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.
All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!
Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.
I like it a lot. Left Reddit on Sunday, tried Tildes, then found Lemmy and have been here since.
Also using Jerboa. I like it well enough. It feels a bit like Reddit but also reminds me of being on the Internet back in the late 90s - not sure why it gives me that feeling though. Maybe because it’s new to me and not the most streamlined, and it’s still growing.
Anyway it’s great here! Enjoying interacting and watching things grow.
Feel the same way. I’m crossing my fingers for the Sync for Reddit dev to port his app to lemmy. That app was fantastic and would be a great addition.
I have exactly the same feeling of 90’s internet, and honestly I think it’s because Jebora is completely unstyled and barebones, just like usenet or IRC back in the days. And most of the users for the time being are friendly nerds in their 30’s and 40’s :-P
