avyrla, Sup fellow Lemmings. Hope you enjoy your stay.
Kittengineer, Anyone coming from Apollo, I highly recommend wefwef. It’s impressively close given how short it’s been in development.
Also fuck spez
delta, (edited ) Thanks for the recommendation! There’s so many apps in the works, I love it. I have a whole folder lol. I’ve found Thunder and Mlem to be the most overall functional so far but I’m definitely gonna check out wefwef.
I encourage everyone to go see what’s out there as far as third party apps. Fuck it, try them all!
edit: wow you weren’t kidding! it really feels extremely similar to apollo while managing to be a web app?? pretty impressive. although i’d prefer a native version…
aloeha, Eat shit and die, Spez
Zibani, He can stuff his website up his spez
plumbercraic, w00t
modemuser, Left reddit after over 15 years, and joined the fediverse. Fuck u/spez
Ruxias, Fuck spez, amen. I'm actually really impressed by how good Lemmy is working given that it is still a newer platform. Big fan of FOSS, so that's a huge plus for me as well!
I will be donating to third-party apps and instances to help support this lovely thing we have going on here.
Stay beautiful, y'all!
K3zi4, Been a RiF user for 12 years. Never thought I'd see the day I'd purge my reddit account and not look back. But here we are! Glad to be here with you all, here's to our new communities.
MrsEaves, Fuck /u/spez, and more importantly, welcome to everyone coming in today. It’s been amazing watching the growth of kbin, and I’m super thankful for the developers who have kept me connected to my communities - first Christian, now Ernest. I’ve never been in on the ground floor of anything and this has been absolutely wild.
Kinda mad I didn’t grab a short handle while I could, but I wasn’t thinking and just used the same as I had on Reddit. sigh
atocci, Could always make your own instance or choose a smaller one and sign up with a short handle there 😉
MrsEaves, True! 😁
AnonymousLlama, A fair number of people seem to be spilling out into Lemmy, kbin, squabbles and other places. Be keen to see how the growth accelerates over the next few weeks as people weigh up their options.
hackitfast, Problem with squabbles is that it has sole ownership. Can literally turn into reddit or Digg again.
Good to know there are a bunch of alternatives though.
AnonymousLlama, Yeah a few friends have spread out, reach looking into new replacements. Kbin got my attention since it's open source and PHP based, so it's something I can jump right into and fix up issues. Lots of people working on fixing up several parts of the site to make it even better
Sinnerman, Also tildes.net. However, they're trying to grow slowly, and they're focused on text-only discussions.
zcd, I think once some nice 3rd party apps get rolling we’ll see a lot more adoption as well
LaKris, Yeah, memmy has helped me transition from apollo.
Dark_Blade, Memmy’s done a phenomenal job at making the Threadiverse more accessible. I bet when it comes out, tons of people will suddenly find it far easier to use Lemmy.
Nadja, This feels like a good landing site.
It''s taking me a while to learn navigation and buttons etc - no disrespect to developers, that's just me.
AnonymousLlama, It's a whole new system so it's going to take a while to get used to it. There's several things behind the scenes getting improved, lots of new UI improvements pending
sdrawk, I miss Boost for Reddit. However I believe a Boost For Lemmy is in the works..?
ihavenopeopleskills, Am I missing something? My not-yet-updated Infinity for Android app still loads Reddit.
FixedFun, Possibly still works for some
PRUSSIA_x86,
Arotrios, The first rule about test post is that we don't talk about test post. Please ignore.
