I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.

Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.

Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.

All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!

Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.

    Also using Jerboa, also not feeling it. Also, I keeps randomly logging me out, but treating me like I am logged in until I try to do something and then reminding me I have to log in. So I do, except it doesn’t recognize it right away, and oh look it just did now where did that thread even go?

    It’s just messy and uncomfortable right now. Here’s hoping it improves or a better app comes along.

      Another great example of things that need improvement: I got an inbox notification that you replied to me, but in order to reply back I had to go to the parent thread and scroll down until I found our comments. I couldn’t figure out any way to reply from my inbox, let alone a “go to comment” option.
