I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.
Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.
Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.
All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!
Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.
I like it. I can see myself being a long-term user here, in fact I plan to be. However, I’m experiencing a lot of timeouts and lag, I know it’s not on my end. I’m not techie enough to know the reason this happens, but Im pretty sure that it won’t adopt mainstream users until it runs smoother.
Yeah I’m the same way. The good news is that when I joined Mastodon a few months ago, the same thing happened. Now, it’s one of the most stable websites/apps I use!
