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

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

It's good. Apps help alot. Needs to be easier to find shit you like in app. Don't miss reddit. Also Rip Lemmy - 2015. What a great thing to be named after. Cheers

Nope, for me also, Lemmy works fine!

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.

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.

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

Lemmy on Memmy is feeling very Apollo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Im good here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

No plans on going anywhere else, sticking with Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

I've been hearing a lot of buzz about Threads...

No, I'm here to stay I think. Reddit was the only social media I used, and this fills the need perfectly, in fact, in a lot of ways, better.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year 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.
