It is crazy to me how much the lemmy experience has improved since joining here from Reddit a few weeks ago. (sh.itjust.works)

I do hope those apps share at least a small part of their revenue by donating to the Lemmy devs (will be tricky to decide which instances to also donate to though). The app devs should realize that the success of their app business depends on Lemmy still being alive.

    Yeah, it's a little weird to me that there's so much focus on third party app development when the platform itself is so new.

    The old Reddit apps bringing their userbase over is great. Having several brand new third party apps is awkward.

    It makes sense since a lot of people are moving because of Reddit dropping TPAs. I'd say the migrants are 90% here because they want a phone app that isn't a complete pile of ad-laden, spyware donkey shit.

    I'm also absolutely certain Reddit's stats that only 3% of users were on TPAs was another pile of steaming donkey shit. I'd place it as vastly larger than Reddit's mobile app. Probably Apollo alone had more users than that.
