Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.

But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.

Give me that hopium guys! 💉

Hi! :) new user here after 10 years on r*ddit

What does being a new user have to do with seeing new feeds? Also is there a new user guide anywhere?

Edit: Also lol can you view my saved posts or is that only something I can view?

I have the option on the app to view other people’s saved stuff but it’s blank

Only you should be able to view your saved posts. I'm not sure what app you're using.

Thanks! It says “view saved posts” on each user but it’s always blank, so I was just making sure.

App is memmy on iOS. Do you recommend anything?

Sorry, I have an Android, so I don't have any recommendations for iOS apps.

I'm liking connect personally

I'm using jerboa. I heard boost is making a lemmy app, so that will prob have a similar ui and ux to what you're used to.

Thanks, I'm liking this more than connect, and way more than on mobile browser

https://vger.app/settings/install

Works on both platforms I believe, and is based off of the Apollo UI.

What app? I doubt you see saved posts unless there’s an option to share somewhere otherwise that goes against 100% of the idea of privacy.

People probably use different accounts to filter content. Instead of flipping around settings and shit you just have one account for reading all the mindmelting horrible shit and another where you don’t subscribe to any of that. Who knows though

On desktop it does look like you're viewing other people's saved posts, but it's actually always just showing your own. The app you're on maybe has the same weirdness.

[–] BenDoubleU@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago

I see that too on Memmy but it shows blank on everyone but myself.

I have a feeling that Memmy just reuses the profile page view for everyone.
