I joined multiple to have many feeds

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I’m pretty comfy here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years 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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yes indeed!

I'll check out Tildes if given an invite or it opens up. But I'm content here given it's where more people went and I seek conversation which is easier to have when there are more people on a thing.

Ironically threads isn't a reddit clone even though the threadiverse exists

I'm loving the fediverse so far, lemmy has been a breath of fresh air compared to reddit. Definitely not going anywhere!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's what I've got for now. I'm no more attached to Lemmy than I was to Reddit for the time being. I clung on to Reddit via Boost just out of convenience but I don't, like, miss it terribly or anything (yet?).

Yeah some of the littler/niche communities I was in are yet to resurface here (from the guilty pleasure Amberlynn Reid drama-watching to the somewhat related anorexia recovery subreddit) but that's to be expected, really.

Personally I'm still not feeling it. My feed is just full of memes and rules posts. All the stuff I blocked in bacon reader. I can't find communities for any of the stuff I was interested in on Reddit.

I won't go back to reddit, but I do miss it.

Thank you my man! I get it now

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

Yes. I am used to appolo and wefwef.app is a life saver.

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

I considered setting up kbin but Lemmy looked easier and has apps.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

The best of the options we have so far. Really wish Christian from Apollo fame would make an app for it.

I feel like there’s people just taking top posts from Reddit and getting them here as fast as they can. Sometimes it seems like a “best of” Reddit site.

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

Is Kbin considered an option?

I much prefer Kbin, mainly because of the interface, the quality of the feed, and microblog feature

I like it so far, lemmy and mastodon are replacing reddit and twitter for me. Yes, is more quiet and there's less people, but also less bullshit (from users and CEO) and in general a great atmosphere.

The fediverse is great!
