I wish there was an alternative to leaving Reddit

It’s still hard to transition ! Especially with a lack of good apps on mobile (at least iOS). It’s only the beginning

PS : It’s my first comment on Lemmy (yay!)

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

I’m using mlem right now (you need to TestFlight it), and while being rough around the edges, it’s got potential, and it’s already better than the mobile web ui of Lemmy

Exactly. Reddit had the most comprehensive and fleshed out (third party) apps of any other similar platform that I know of. But with the exodus, I'm really hoping we can all breathe some life into some of the apps that we do have access to that weren't getting as much attention

Are you using Mlem on iOS? I keep switching back and forth between the mobile site and mlem. Not sure which I like better at the moment.

[–] aponigricon@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I finally got Mlem to work after fighting the iOS updater all night, and it's honestly much nicer to use than the web interface. It feels extremely reminiscent of Apollo for Reddit.

Have you tried using the mobile site? App selection on Android isn't the best but the mobile site is actually pretty good.

Except for the constant pestering to use the app that has been going on since about September last year. It's why I went to Relay

Jerboa on Android seems pretty easy to use so far.

[–] Scaldart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah! I'm still new to everything here, but nothing has yet broken to the point of un-usability. That's more than I can say for the official Reddit app. Lol.

[–] DocWurzel@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same here. If I can't use a 3rd party app to smooth over Reddit's shit-filled cracks then I'm done with it. Jerboa seems ok so far. I've also signed up for a Mastodon account, awaiting approval, so I may end up using Fedilab
