News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I was an Apollo user when I had an iPhone, then moved to Android and was a Boost user to finally move to Sync, now all of these 3 are dead, do you really think I'd want to keep being active on that "community"?

These devs deserved better, luckily both Android devs moved here, and they will receive the support of their followers, and Apollo already has numerous spiritual successors, Wefwef/Voyager being an awesome PWA and some iOS apps like Memmy and Artemis!

On that point: there is a Boost for Lemmy app in development

I was a Reddit is Fun user, and I'm hoping for a Lemmy is Fun app that is nearly identical.

Im pretty sure the rif dev is making a tildes app.

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

lol call me when tildes finishes their years-long closed alpha

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'm not holding my breath

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't know what to chose, Boost or Sync for Lemmy or keep trying all the existent apps, I think I'll use the latter plus Boost and Sync LMAO.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I really liked boost on Reddit, but it probably comes to personal preference. Haven't tried anything else (besides the official app years ago) and never felt the need to try anything else.

I'm using Jerboa now and is a little similar in my opinion. I just downloaded it today so I'm still playing with it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I was converted to Reddit by RiF but when I discorvered Sync I jumped ship because it has the best scrolling performance on my shitty Android phone at the time.

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

Boost is great, but I've had more success replicating the old.reddit experience using Sync; the compact/list view feels more "right" to me. I originally started using it because it was the closest analog to Alien Blue at the time, and I never saw a reason to switch. Damn, I used it for almost 10 years!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah pretty excited for that!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sync for lemmy should be up in a few weeks time. I'm pretty stoked about it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Mostly excited for Boost for lemmy myself, having a big dev putting that up will be of great help.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I really want Infinity for Lemmy

How exactly do I download this. Also, seems like it's still in Alpha

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

It is still in Alpha. Currently viewing communities, users, posts and comments of Lemmy instances mostly works.

I like wefwef/Voyager. I tried Memmy, but can't upvote comments, only posts so went back to Voyager.
