I'm a RiF refugee too. Used it for almost a decade, now that it's gone I find the official app to be very difficult to use.

The Fediverse has been really cool and I'm glad I took the jump. I was apprehensive at first, but I've found Lemmy to be pretty fun so far!

I think this is the only poppinkream I've ever seen that doesn't have citations all over it.

Any advice for someone who just made that same jump?

I stated using Jerboa*, which feels a little similar in spirit. Had to jump trough some hoops though, as your login server needs at least version 0.18 to work.

Jerboa was ok, but things started to irritate me so I found Liftoff, which was a much more polished app. Currently using Connect for Lemmy as it's the closest to my original Reddit app

[–] egol@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

I actually also switched to Liftoff. Will try Connect now. Thanks for the recommendation.

I'm using Connect for Lemmy. Has all I need. I never used an app for reddit though was always on mobile web, which isn't so good for lemmy

[–] Imgonnatrythis@lemmy.fmhy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm liking connect so far. Feels very RIFy

[–] bloopernova@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

I just installed it, it really is like RiF. This makes the loss a bit more bearable.

I actually really like using Opera Mobile for Lemmy. Seems to work well for me, atleast.

If you're on android: I'd recommend checking out Summit for Lemmy. The layout reminds me of RIF!
Try to participate. Let's build a community. This "mass exodus" from reddit is different than previous ones. A majority of power users that made Reddit what it was have either quit or are now on the fediverse.

Oh that's very slick, I like that.
