Redditors, how do you like Lemmy? (beehaw.org)

I run a few groups, like @[email protected], 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've got it setup with docker now but yeah it's a pain. I realize it's a bunch of apps working together but a single docker container which exposes the 3 ports should be the easy way. I've messed around with compose files so I figured it out but it's a bit daunting having to sync the hjson file with the compose stuff and then having to use another reverse proxy to expose that stuff.

I'm definitely going to keep tinkering with it. Hopefully I'll have it built this evening. The only reason I really want my own particular instance is to create a community that I haven't seen made thus far. Other than that, I've enjoyed lemmy so far. Once more people join there should be a steady flow of content.
