If I make one more comment, it'll be the farthest away from reddit I've ever been.

Fuck it, up voted you three separate times for the same comment lol

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

That's strange. I guess it triple posted. Thanks I guess haha.

We’ve had one Reddit, yes. But what about second Reddit?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Reddit was already Second Digg, we're heading for Elevensies at this point.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I said this on another comment, but it is worth repeating, at least for me...

Digg v5.0

The onboarding process was a tad confusing, but so far I’m really liking Lenny as a whole. Once the user base grows, the urge to go back to reddit will be close to zero.

Edit: I’m also really enjoying Lemmy as well

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

Lenny's alright. He still owes me $3.25 for lunch I leant him in sixth grade though.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I added wefwef.app to my home page and accidentally named it Lenny so it will always be Lenny to me now

Great news. My favourite Reddit app Boost is making the migration to Lemmy

Slide for lemmy and Sync for lemmy are coming too :D

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

Thanks for pointing this out. I just removed slide from my phone and now I can look forward to adding a new version of it in the future.

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

I'm very excited for it!

[–] foil 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Incredible news. I will absolutely be launching the rocket again

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

This and Sync for Lemmy can get tons of users with people posting about it on reddit.

And wefwef. wefwef is amazing

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

Can't wait to give this a try, just pre-registered!

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

Lmao someone pls do spez up as the eye trust me bro it’ll be so funny

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So far the lemmy apps have been superior scrolling to the official reddit app.

How funny

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Omg this. I can’t believe how bad the Reddit app is when scrolling.

I have an iPhone 13 Pro and the dropped frames were just so jarring.

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

If you drop frames on any modern iPhone your app is fucking dog shit. No offence intended to smaller devs etc, but a big corpo like raddat has no fucking excuses x

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

I mean it’s a low bar but yeah

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

I could never get used to the slow loading time of reddit.com on PC browser. Never used the official reddit app either. Already signed up for sync for lemmy.

[–] ruckblack 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sync is coming to Lemmy, people here are more positive, communities keep booming, I'm having a great time

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

Got a link to it, I had Sync for Reddit, wondering if I have to buy a new app, or just get it to transfer over. If nothing else, my GF LOVED the sync app, she was complaining already about how she hates not having 'our app' anymore.

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

LJ is working on it. It's about 6 weeks off yet but you can pre-register Here

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Of all the communities i expected to move over this enthusiastically LotR memes wasn't it but damn am I happy it did

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I sure hope so Sam...

The Road goes ever on and on, Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Whats boosts precious?

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

Ngl I’m wandering around here a bit blind. If anyone can answer some simple, stupid questions that would be fantastic.

What’s the difference between lemmy.world and lemmy.ml? Is one more popular?

What app are you guys using? I’m torn between Memmy and Mlem.

This is less important but: can you have profile avatars? I didn’t see them on one app but did on another, kinda odd.

Anyway, fuck Spez.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Bear in mind most apps have only been in development for a couple of weeks at most and they're all prioritising different features. You can always log into the mobile site and upload an avatar that way if you can't yet do it in whichever app you've settled on.

(For your other question, as claymedia explained lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are just two instances of many that are both running the Lemmy software, with different signup rules and different communities hosted there. But since you can access the communities from wherever, just pick whichever home instance you like and get subscribing)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Lemmy.world has open account creation, while Lemmy.ml requires an essay to create an account. For that reason, I believe .world has more users. But you can access content from either one no matter which you make an account on. Similarly, you could pick another instance or even host your own and still see and post content to other instances in the Fediverse.

I’ve tried out Mlem and Memmy, and so far I have preferred Memmy. The dev has been improving it at an insane rate too, so if you don’t love it yet, just wait a couple weeks and check again.

I think some instances have profile pics disabled? I’m not entirely sure though.

Fuck u/spez, indeed.

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

Yeah Memmy is a good fucking app

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

Lemmy.ml requires an essay to create an account.

Wait, seriously? Why though lol

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

lemmy.world is the most popular so far. lemmy.ml is run by authoritarians/tankies. I myself am on kbin.social. beehaw.org seems pretty popular, too.

"They're taking the content to ~~Isengard~~ Lemmy!"

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

Boost for Lemmy just appeared in the Google Play store yesterday as a "coming soon" app. (by the same author, too).
