If I make one more comment, it'll be the farthest away from reddit I've ever been.

Fuck it, up voted you three separate times for the same comment lol

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

That's strange. I guess it triple posted. Thanks I guess haha.

We’ve had one Reddit, yes. But what about second Reddit?

[–] FaceDeer@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Reddit was already Second Digg, we're heading for Elevensies at this point.

[–] Voswi@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

I said this on another comment, but it is worth repeating, at least for me...

Digg v5.0

The onboarding process was a tad confusing, but so far I’m really liking Lenny as a whole. Once the user base grows, the urge to go back to reddit will be close to zero.

Edit: I’m also really enjoying Lemmy as well

[–] gabevill@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago

Lenny's alright. He still owes me $3.25 for lunch I leant him in sixth grade though.

[–] voidhearts@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

I added wefwef.app to my home page and accidentally named it Lenny so it will always be Lenny to me now

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Great news. My favourite Reddit app Boost is making the migration to Lemmy

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Slide for lemmy and Sync for lemmy are coming too :D

[–] LordOlgort@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for pointing this out. I just removed slide from my phone and now I can look forward to adding a new version of it in the future.

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 3 points 1 year ago

I'm very excited for it!

[–] foil@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Incredible news. I will absolutely be launching the rocket again

[–] OtakuAltair@vlemmy.net 6 points 1 year ago

This and Sync for Lemmy can get tons of users with people posting about it on reddit.

And wefwef. wefwef is amazing

[–] UnderScore081@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Can't wait to give this a try, just pre-registered!

[–] Casmael@geddit.social 1 points 1 year ago

Good news! ~~the Dacia sandero~~ boost is coming to ~~the uk~~ lemmy!

[–] smoll_pp_operator@vlemmy.net 25 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So far the lemmy apps have been superior scrolling to the official reddit app.

How funny

[–] stoic_sloth@aussie.zone 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Omg this. I can’t believe how bad the Reddit app is when scrolling.

I have an iPhone 13 Pro and the dropped frames were just so jarring.

[–] Casmael@geddit.social 2 points 1 year ago

If you drop frames on any modern iPhone your app is fucking dog shit. No offence intended to smaller devs etc, but a big corpo like raddat has no fucking excuses x

[–] metromojo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I could never get used to the slow loading time of reddit.com on PC browser. Never used the official reddit app either. Already signed up for sync for lemmy.

Sync is coming to Lemmy, people here are more positive, communities keep booming, I'm having a great time

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

Got a link to it, I had Sync for Reddit, wondering if I have to buy a new app, or just get it to transfer over. If nothing else, my GF LOVED the sync app, she was complaining already about how she hates not having 'our app' anymore.

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

LJ is working on it. It's about 6 weeks off yet but you can pre-register Here

[–] Numerol@vlemmy.net 10 points 1 year ago

Of all the communities i expected to move over this enthusiastically LotR memes wasn't it but damn am I happy it did

[–] VaidenKelsier@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

The Road goes ever on and on, Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.

[–] zcd@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Whats boosts precious?

[–] Enasni@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Ngl I’m wandering around here a bit blind. If anyone can answer some simple, stupid questions that would be fantastic.

What’s the difference between lemmy.world and lemmy.ml? Is one more popular?

What app are you guys using? I’m torn between Memmy and Mlem.

This is less important but: can you have profile avatars? I didn’t see them on one app but did on another, kinda odd.

Anyway, fuck Spez.

[–] thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Bear in mind most apps have only been in development for a couple of weeks at most and they're all prioritising different features. You can always log into the mobile site and upload an avatar that way if you can't yet do it in whichever app you've settled on.

(For your other question, as claymedia explained lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are just two instances of many that are both running the Lemmy software, with different signup rules and different communities hosted there. But since you can access the communities from wherever, just pick whichever home instance you like and get subscribing)

[–] claymedia@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Lemmy.world has open account creation, while Lemmy.ml requires an essay to create an account. For that reason, I believe .world has more users. But you can access content from either one no matter which you make an account on. Similarly, you could pick another instance or even host your own and still see and post content to other instances in the Fediverse.

I’ve tried out Mlem and Memmy, and so far I have preferred Memmy. The dev has been improving it at an insane rate too, so if you don’t love it yet, just wait a couple weeks and check again.

I think some instances have profile pics disabled? I’m not entirely sure though.

Fuck u/spez, indeed.

[–] Casmael@geddit.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah Memmy is a good fucking app

[–] SnoopyGirl09@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Lemmy.ml requires an essay to create an account.

Wait, seriously? Why though lol

[–] Drusas@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

lemmy.world is the most popular so far. lemmy.ml is run by authoritarians/tankies. I myself am on kbin.social. beehaw.org seems pretty popular, too.

[–] Lyrl@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

There are a lot of servers, I am on lemm.ee for example. Most are federated with each other so you can see and interact with every post from every community, so usually it doesn't matter which one you sign up with.

Sometimes a server gets maintenance issues or makes moderation decisions that make users want to move, and portable accounts aren't a thing yet in the Lemmy code, so some people have accounts on more than one server. Portable accounts is a top requested feature, so hopefully the dev implements it in a near-future update.

[–] PillowTalk420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

"They're taking the content to ~~Isengard~~ Lemmy!"

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

Boost for Lemmy just appeared in the Google Play store yesterday as a "coming soon" app. (by the same author, too).
