Audience capture is a bitch

That plus their own app being abysmal. The official Reddit app is a terrible experience without the necessary features of the old ones

Yeah, Lemmy apps are rough at the moment, but I’m optimistic for them

Without porn, patching old RIF is genuinely not worth it. I’d rather wait and support the new Lemmy app by the same dev

Ah I gotcha

Yeah, I really wish at least one of the major third party Reddit apps was able to launch their Lemmy version today, bit of course I understand it takes time

Yeah. Most non-major subreddits, which were always the best on Reddit, have yet to migrate over in any form yet

You’re right, it’s a pretty novel experience to get to learn a whole new social media app/site in the current year

Goodbye Reddit drama, hello Lemmy drama

Yeah miss me with the self-righteous, hateful toxicity of pre-2012 Reddit. I left because Reddit made the user experience horrible by shutting down better apps while their own was still abysmal. Idk anything about how ban-happy specific communities are here, but I understand if heavier moderating is needed at the beginning to prevent this place from turning into Voat

I believe Reddit has/had the same drawbacks

And this is the first time I see a Lemmy comment quoting another

It’s cool seeing someone here that I recognize from Reddit

Yep, the perception of business and web traffic is what drives actual traffic

Same. I try to find alternatives to the subreddits I used to follow, but aside from technology subs, I don’t see much of what I remember, even after using the search function in Connect. Not sure how good it is though

Is there a way to see this through Connect?

Yeah imagine spending two hours on Reddit trying to set up an account lol

And, all of the apps should be becoming more and more user friendly

True, it’ll take a few weeks for the apps to catch up and for the community to settle

Proud of you
