Redditors, how do you like Lemmy? (beehaw.org)

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'm new here and have not met that drama yet. I joined a very small server to spread out the load and I doubt obscene cheese memes will get my instance defederated from the pack.

Who does Beehaw block? Is it a Trump thing again?

    Oh, it blocks the genzedong reddit crowd (who are worse here because there are no admins to tell them to stop openly advocating genocide) and the alt-right skinhead types. They tend to come from a few specific instances. What's left is a blend of progressives and socialists and anarchists and moderates that can generally talk about things without treating you like you should be put to the firing squad for not loving Stalin or Hitler.

    You'll come across it at some point and know immediately what I'm talking about.
