It’s almost as if reddit’s first party app couldn’t even compete with third party apps. I used Boost for Reddit and now I’m waiting for Boost for Lemmy
Still trying to wrap my head around the cross-community, cross-server talk, but then again I’m drunk so I should just try again in the morning

I’m looking forward to the day where answers to technical questions are not always found on corporate websites like Stack and Reddit.
They already are, depending what you’re looking for. A lot of the answers that I’ve found to take questions in the last few years are on obscure developer support forums.
If you haven’t tried wefwef.app, it’s worth a shot. Basically a clone of Apollo, but as a web app.
I have problems with the import from Apollo feature where it freezes on the list after I pick a subreddit and then go back to the list. Anyone else have that problem?
I understand. Spez harmed Reddit.
I caved and visited on the 2nd just to see if there was any noticeable impact. But I’m all in on beans now
Same.
I’ve lurked and posted some, but /all just seems different.
Is the title supposed to sound like a Narcotics Anonymous meeting or am I just projecting?
In a way social media is a drug and most of us were addicted. At least I was on Reddit, because I liked being there. So not using it, especislly when it was kind of a habit may not be easy for many on virtue fo that alone.
were addicted
Been lamenting losing some niche subreddits that I frequented, but it almost makes me want to start those communities here on lemmy.
Im sure there are a few people who have the same idea but dont know how to like myself.
Ah well, maybe myself or someone else will get around to it soon enough.
I’ve also been mourning the loss of some of my smaller subreddits and thinking of re-creating them here. If you do end up doing so yourself, consider making one last post on those old subs to recommend others join as well!
Kinda reminds me of the feeling I had when I left Digg for Reddit.
Same.
I’m still grieving the Reddit that was.
Now, I’m excited for the threadiverse that could be.
It hurts to lose everything we had, but leaving is the only way to have better platforms in the future.
It’s also not that bad. Most okder users went through plenty of online communities.
True enough. I’m just a young lad who grew up in the age of social media centralization, so this is my first real platform migration.
You dont need to know the cross talking part
Same! Been on wefwef for the past 3 days and although it will take time getting used to the reduced posts/comments, it’s still amazing!
same.
Hopefully there will be more content with time, also. I know I’m going to try and step out of my comfort zone to post and comment more often.
I’m also doing this! Feels like the old reddit lurkers are finding their voice on a new social media lol.
The reduced amount of comments here actually motivate me to comment more. On Reddit I wouldn’t even bother commenting on a lot of posts as they would have comments in the hundreds sometimes and I couldn’t see the point to bother just having my comment never seen in a sea like that.
Yeah, it’s been super weird constantly opening Apollo due to muscle memory but haven’t logged back in since the 1st.
I’m still checking it because Infinity for Reddit isn’t “dead” yet. I used Sync too, so I’m waiting for Sync for Lemmy/kbin! (I know it’s coming out in about 5 weeks according to the developer of Sync.)
I’m really impressed with how quickly lemmy is building a community, shitposts, beans, and all.
If we humans are good at anything, it’s ruining things and building community
