I won't be posting to lemmy anymore. I was using liftoff, and now that that's dead I really can't be bothered to learn another client. I post most of my content to my instagram now. If you are interested thats https://www.instagram.com/chamrsdeluxe

I also still post to reddit /u/marc815 (I know, evil) every now and then to a couple communities that just don't exist here.

Good bye lemmy peoples. Really enjoyed sharing and discussing my outfits and armors and props with you guys!

I will check on this post for the next day or so at least tho to say bye to those who kept tabs on my stuff.

If this makes you sad, hopefully this can cheer you up.

What does "learn another client" even means?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

All clients do things differently. When liftoff died I had to choose another client and went with Voyager. It's very good but not as nice to use by any stretch and I'd gotten very used to the liftoff way of doing things.

So yeah, there is a learning process in switching clients.

The basics are kinda same in all tho. Stuff like gestures differs.

True. It's a hurdle but not insurmountable by any means.

Things that are bugging me about voyager having really loved liftoff are positioning of buttons, lack of avatars, lack of poster name without viewing the post, weird buttons that feel like they're probably for iOS and lack of single hand navigation. Still as you say the basics are the same and I'm still here but I was willing to eat the cost.

I know, I don't want to waste more time lol. I like lemmy, but there's quite a few communities that aren't on here as well unfortunately.

Maybe I'll come back in the future.
