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'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.

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.

Lemmy on Memmy is feeling very Apollo

[–] hotwarioinyourarea@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year 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.

Im good here.

[–] jecht360@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

No plans on going anywhere else, sticking with Lemmy.

I've signed up on tildes.net as well

I joined multiple to have many feeds

As of right now, I'm using Lemmy and just getting the feel for it. I think once some of the other larger 3rd party apps start getting released for Lemmy (Sync, Boost, etc.), it'll drive more people to creating an account and creating more communities. When compared to reddit, it's quite dead at the moment, but that can change once people start creating communities and participating. Time will tell if this is the "next reddit" or just the transitional phase.

[–] Fartpoopbuttturd@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think the only thing Lemmy is missing is scale now. Appears there is adequate dev support currently and every day I'm finding another community I followed on reddit popping up here

And I love the idea of not having one controlling entity for the platform to answer to. This is going to create some problems that will have to be addressed eventually but for now I feel like this is us taking back what the internet should be.

I'm loving the fediverse so far, lemmy has been a breath of fresh air compared to reddit. Definitely not going anywhere!

[–] 5ilver5urfer@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Yes here to stay now. With Memmy in the iOS App Store. It’s finally an easier transition.

[–] MrAstroman@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Seems like it is for me, I'm also using snapzu, but I seem to be gravitating towards lemmy more.

[–] deathbypizza@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Pretty hopeful. I'm in the process of setting up a server to try and host a few communities. Should get it online by the end of the month. I figure if as many people as possible just host a few communities (i.e. cherished Reddit subs that aren't here yet) then we can save the major instances the pain of trying to host everything for everyone and take real advantage of building a truly robust decentralised network
