We just don’t smell the rot yet. It’s not about the actual body (website) and the name. It is about the spirit, the personality. And that has been compromised and killed off because of factors one could call enshittification or whatever. Digg and Tumblr still exist, at least in name, but not in spirit. I think Reddit has past that threshold. It will be a slow death and I am not sure the fediverse will fill the void it leaves behind. But I do think and believe communities will never sustain on venture capital.

    Also don’t forget to vote 1⭐ for the App on Playstore.

    In the last few days, it’s gone from 3.8 to 3.5 to 3.3, not that I’m watching it or anything.

    Stinks for Jerboa got some low reviews prior to it’s current version.

    Be nifty if people re-evaluated/voted.

      I think Jerboa probably deserves its current scores. It’s fine but it definitely leaves a lot to be desired. The improvements that it has received over just the past few weeks are great, though, so hopefully that trend continues and it can be a more easily recommendable product.

      But personally I am still keeping my eye on the apps being developed by former Reddit app devs who are working on versions of those apps for Lemmy. Jerboa can’t hold a candle to what Sync for Reddit was and, I’m curious to see how Sync for Lemmy stands in comparison.
