You're not kidding about the cleaner part.
Coming here has made me realize just how astroturfed reddit is on the larger subs. Just an army of bots upvoting each others trash.
Folks here are just trying to rebuild what they loved from reddit and it feels genuine. Honest to god it's like a breath of fresh air
ditto
If I'm being honest I'll be using both at least until Sync officially shuts down. After that reddit will be 100% old.reddit on the laptop, and when the quality takes a dive from mods quitting/mod tools getting nuked then lemmy all the way
The official app is terrible and not worth suffering for a dopamine hit. I know spending all that time scrolling on the phone isnt good for my mental health so I suppose this makes for a good opportunity to readjust.
It's a pill that has an enzyme in it that breaks down the complex carbs in beans and veggies so that you can fully digest them without getting the farts.
My SO hated me eating beans until I discovered that walmart sells a generic bean-o for far less than the name brand. Your loved ones dont have to suffer that fate
I'd love for lemmy to take off as a reddit replacement but it has some hurdles to overcome.
My experience as an ex-redditor thats been here for a few hours, its still super confusing figuring out how to subscribe to ~~subs~~communities. I'm getting the hang of it but I'm willing to do that. Many newcomers are gonna see its not a click to subscribe type situation and close the tab instead. Until its user friendly, its not going to gain the amount of traction to be a replacement
I won't miss the sex related askreddit threads from thirsty redditors that always appeared on the front page
