I run a few groups, like @[email protected], 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.
It’s very nice! In general it’s cleaner. Community so far is much friendlier. I like that there are fewer of us so far. It’s more homely?
However, joining communities is still a bit rough and difficult and a bit unreliable for me at the moment.
Yes, this is a major stress test and lemmy.ml is having some difficulty right now

This should make it significantly more userfriendly though!
