Lemmy on Memmy is feeling very Apollo

[–] trouser_mouse@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yes, currently Lemmy is the one. Trust Cafe WTS Social is small but has some interesting aspects.

It will be interesting to see how Lemmy scales and adapts to corporations joining, and also how GDPR compliance unfolds.

Yeah I think I like it here, it's different, but that isnt a bad thing. Also no idea where else to go. All other social media is off putting.

I want to like kbin, but mobile UI is just weird. If I tap on a picture, I want to see the picture, not the comment thread.

Gerboa gets me closest to the RIF experience, so that's where I'm at for now.

As of right now, I'm using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it'll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it's quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the "next reddit" or just the transitional phase.

I use reddit.club

give it time and dedication. it will grow if we want it to.

Not to me. As the community is smaller, my exposure is larger. I had no voice on Reddit or any community.

[–] A10@kerala.party 2 points 1 year ago

Lemme tell you... Yes the platform and ecosystem are only going to get better.

[–] Fartpoopbuttturd@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think the only thing Lemmy is missing is scale now. Appears there is adequate dev support currently and every day I'm finding another community I followed on reddit popping up here

And I love the idea of not having one controlling entity for the platform to answer to. This is going to create some problems that will have to be addressed eventually but for now I feel like this is us taking back what the internet should be.

[–] CharlotteRain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's certainly slower and the professional communities I was part of are gone but.... I only viewed reddit from mobile and fuck that app sucks.

[–] newguy208@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I am also using raddle.me and squabbles.io. both look promising and slightly less confusing than Lemmy with their instances.
