Seems like Reddit is completely down now. Frontpage hasn't loaded for 15 or 20 minutes.

That probably won't last given Spez's bullshit, but I gotta say, Lemmy is looking pretty promising. The Jeroba mobile app is a little underwhelming though, voting and replying to comments is a hassle. Maybe the RIF dev will make a Lemmy app or help improve Jeroba.

there was talks of the reddit infinity app possibly incorporating lemmy into itself

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Never tried that one, my go to was RiF. Is that on Android?

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago

Awesome, thanks!

The RedReader Dev had said he's looking to include Lemmy.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Never tried that one either, I usually used RiF. Is that on Android?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep. You can get it on FDroid package manager or the Google Play Store.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago

Awesome, thanks!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How is it a hassle? It seems perfect-enough to me.

At least on Android, I can't respond to or vote on responses that show up in my inbox. Clicking on the message itself does nothing instead of taking me to the message. The UI definitely needs improvements in usability but it's still very much in development as far as I could tell.

I think it's having trouble keeping up with the rush of users. I'll admit though it's pretty frustrating that my upvotes don't register. I get "timeout" after a few seconds.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah it's really slow right now. Like you, I assume it's because of an influx of new people but took me like a minute to just log in. Hopefully it's not as bad once the rush of people starts settling

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I only seem to be having that problem with Jeroba. In the browser it seems to work fine with the lemmies I've tried

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

At first it was both, couldn't upvote on the browser or Jerboa. Since this afternoon though I haven't been getting a timeout error on Jerboa.

Edit: nevermind it's happening again. Maybe it's happening due to server load?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh! I just figured that out -- try tapping-and-holding for a second. Some menu options should come up then.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Thanks I'll give that a try. Upvote/downvote/reply should all just appear by default though IMO

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Miner's android, I am using jerboa, and they are appearing automatically for me.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 3 points 1 year ago

Hmm, maybe my app is just borked then. I'll try wiping app data and reinstalling.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I personally like the clean presentation, but I would definitely be happy compromising with it being a setting we can choose, and defaulting to it being visible - sitewide, not just in the inbox.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago

Customization would be excellent!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you’re using an iPhone, Mlem is in TestFlight beta. https://testflight.apple.com/join/xQfmkJhc

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm on Android, but I'm sure other people with iPhones would be excited to test it out!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

RIF's dev is busy helping Tildes, but I'm sure with Rexxit many more experienced app devs will submit more PRs and write their own solutions.

[–] _haha_oh_wow_ 1 points 1 year ago

Damn, I might give Tildes a more serious look just because of that. RiF was great.

So is the Boost app. Quick look at Reddit a lot of the usual players on r/All
