I landed here after RIF stopped working on my device and followed RIF link. This will be my new place to find content and see aggregation. Here it is to the end of reddit that starts today! ๐Ÿป

Just made my account too. RIP RIF, you were good to me.

Now I'm excited to see what this Lemmy.world is all about - does it have an app on the Play store?

If you don't mind.... can you let us know which app u end up using. I'm hoping to get one that is closest to the RIF app experience of yore

I'm using wefwef.app seems pretty decent so far.

I think the apps will drastically improve in the next month so I'm just using a mobile browser until I see which one becomes the best. The mobile browser is already way better than reddit on a mobile browser so it's not bad.

Same. And your right, the browser for Lemmy right now is SO GOOD.

There are several. Unfortunately, they are all in early alpha. Lemmy wasn't quite ready for the mainstream, so the developers are scrambling a bit. That said, the improvements, even over just the last week or so, are impressive. Even if the apps are currently a bit threadbare and buggy still.

Jerboa is available on the app store. I'm personally using Thunder, though you need to download it from GitHub right now to use it. There are several more out there, but I've not played with them yet.
