Probably going to spin up an open identi.ca instance. It federates well with both lemmy and mastodon and does more. After that I'll probably whip up a script to automatically follow new accounts and communities to get it all federated into my instance.

I'm between here and Squabbles, but I am leaning heavily this way, since Wefwef removed some of the annoyances. Sync coming here guaranteed that I would be here eventually.

The user interface in my opinion is pretty bad. It looks like old reddit which wasn't that good. I have to manually expand each post to view it instead of just scrolling through.

Kbin is mostly better. But still a little rough on a few points.

Reddit in desktop mode is better.

Sync in card view mode was the best. Still looking for that experience.

I'm liking it the more I use it and seeing the development of the platform is a nice experience.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

So far Lemmy is my new home! I like it here.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Here since last night. It's been good, feels like Reddit from ten years ago.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Nope, for me also, Lemmy works fine!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Literally just signed up. Don't quite get the instances thing I'll read about that tonight but right now I'm on world which I think is the 'big' one?

Either way liking it so far

4 weeks ago it was empty.

3 weeks ago it was a growing and a little rough to find content.

2 weeks ago it was filling in.

1 week ago it was silly (beans anyone?).

It is growing by leaps and bounds. The main thing missing now is the really good discussions in politics and news. But I think the trajectory is right and it will be the place to be.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Depends on how much Meta fucks it up, if at all.

The only “Reddit” feel Lemmy is missing is a mobile app that’s as good as Apollo, which I think will happen soon seeing so many app developments going on

The sports stuff is pretty empty. Team specific (my teams) are mostly dead still. So I've been on the corresponding SB Nation blogs more than I had for a long time. Otherwise, just here.

I’ve used both Lemmy and Kbin. I see advantages to both, but I have been finding that Kbin isn’t as flexible with federated posts and is less flexible with smaller instances: my smaller instance of Kbin is missing a lot of posts and images that show up on kbin.social.

My smaller instance of Lemmy (VLemmy) seems to be pretty complete, so I have been been happy with it.

Also, the constant Kbin warnings about missing info on Federated magazines has really pushed me toward Lemmy.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I'm pretty happy here. It's nice and close knit and not full of shit. Kbin also seems cool but needs a bit more time in the oven and an app to really be useful to me.

Lemmy on Memmy is feeling very Apollo

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Im good here.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I want to like kbin, but mobile UI is just weird. If I tap on a picture, I want to see the picture, not the comment thread.

Gerboa gets me closest to the RIF experience, so that's where I'm at for now.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I HAVE to stay here because I like mobile scrolling and I will never use the shitty Reddit app, so lemmy is staying as my Reddit replacement :)

I find it very strange how memes have become more popular than the gaming subs, I thought they would be equally bustling but they’re deathly quiet which is a shame so far.

Also missing SquaredCircle for wrestling happenings so I’ll quickly visit there on my PC, but certainly not interested in other Reddit crap.

Also got Tildes on the side for when I want some more stuff but there’s a lot off guff like sociology n stuff….sometimes you just need a meme or whatever. Glad to have a choice.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I’m hoping it will “stick” and grow in more popularity. I’ve been using wefwef.app and it’s nearly the same as Apollo, so I’ve been enjoying it. Many of my favorite communities are already here, but some aren’t, so it just means I’ll have to get them started!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I think in my (limited) experience so far, kbin has the features/layout I prefer--but there's "nobody" over there. The community I set up over here is slowly gathering followers--the kbin one is not.
