I tried all the clients that are out there and no matter good they felt alien as I was accustomed to using Boost on Reddit. Now that the lemmy client has come, it's like I'm using reddit now. The only thing that bugs me is most communities didn't move from reddit and I'd have to continue using the official shitty app to engage with them.

Also I wanna know whether this one time payment would be all to access all the features or does the dev intend to go the sync route and offer something like ultra tier?

This is what I use to sneak back into Reddit

Looks good but I'd have preferred an app.

There's an "allowed" 3rd party app called Relay Pro that I sometimes use. Allowed because they were not using much API, supposedly (and also allowed to show ads by reddit now ๐Ÿค”) Not sure if any others.

I used to use Relay before using Boost. Have the paid for version in my library, but not gonna give reddit the traffic.

The only thing that bugs me is most communities didn't move from reddit [...]

Be the change you want to see in the world. Try to start one of those communities over here. Don't be disappointed when it doesn't get traction within a few days. There are some places to advertise new communities here.

I second this. I barely know fuck all about Lemmy, and I still manage to have small community. They kinda just manage themselves, but I'm there too.

I agree with the other comments that stated that you should be the change you want to see in the world..

Lemmy does need a lil bit more content now. Engage with the users. Create posts and create comments. This is the future bro. A platform hosted by the users, for the users. You are not buying a yacht for anyone by using lemmy. On reddit however.. You use reddit and someone else gets to buy a new house..
