Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let’s do this! 🤝
Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.
Infinity is $5/mo, it’s a reasonably priced option but I’ll make a good faith effort to switch my monkey brain here first. What’s a good app besides Connect?
I’ve been using Connect mostly but I just switched to Jerboa which seems to be one of the most downloaded apps right now.
The interface is cleaner and nice IMO. You don’t get the drag for reaction / comment / bookmark but thats fine, it don’t work very well to begin with. Seems to be more stable as well but I’ve not yet used it that much.
I was planning on using Jerboa but there was a issue when i first tried it that made me not able to login.
There is a few more comming. Pretty fun to aee how many apps have been popping up.
I just don’t see it being viable for them. The math doesn’t work once you get power users as the base for using it. Then once people realize they are missing NSFW tagged content that might be a deal breaker. This was legitimately planned by Reddit to not work on purpose.
You can also set up up so that it looks very similar to rif. The devs have been pretty active with updates as well. It’s been my go to since leaving reddit.
My last day on Reddit I shared an excited post about a fun thing in a hobby sub of mine and I got such awful negative responses and people telling me I was attention seeking. It was really ugly. So that was pretty much when I decided to uninstall my Boost app and switch to Lemmy full time
I’m using Jerboa and have been testing Thunder since yesterday, not bad, but still a bit limited, we need to be patient and give the developers some time, there are already like 10 apps and a couple of forks of third party Reddit apps in active development.
As a former Apollo user, using wefwef for lemmy has made adoption so easy. 10/10, it’s basically an Apollo clone in-browser and has been working great. https://wefwef.app/
What principals? That we’re selfish? I pirate shit all the time but it’s not out of any sort of righteousness, I’d just rather get something for free than pay for it if the option is there.
I was on Reddit for 13 years. I’ve been using sync for as long as I knew there was a mobile app. Lemmy seems really relaxed and I’m looking forward to it!
A few last minute loopholes were carved in according to comments in this post
some apps have gotten a temporary reprieve such as Narwhal
Some apps have gotten an exception for access for visually impaired.
the NSFW block is exempt for mods so if you start your own sub, you can still see all content or so it seems (I’m not quite sure because Narwhal still seems fully functional in this regard and I am not a mod)

Let’s go.
Reddit is dead to me anyways.
Relay for Reddit is at least comming with a subscription model but to be quite honest I think I’ll start using Lemmy much more.

Any lemmy client suggestion ? For Android
Jerboa has been the least buggy with the most features for me.
You can also set up up so that it looks very similar to rif. The devs have been pretty active with updates as well. It’s been my go to since leaving reddit.
Can you clarify how you’d make it look like RiF?
Under look and feel. You can set the post view to list. You may have to fiddle with some of the other settings there but it gets it close.

I’m using WefWef.app for Lemmy and it’s awesome.
It’s a straight-up Apollo clone as a web app.
I am floored.

Wefwef is amazing. Only thing that I’ve noticed I’m missing so far is the endless moving back and forward by swiping to right/left.
That’s been my favorite part! Best accidental find
Switched yesterday and so far, really liking it. Might even say, it’s better than Reddit at the moment already.
No heavy echo-chamber/ toxicity (yet). Just waiting that it becomes more active with more communities.
I just switch a couple of days ago and I feel more willing to post and comment
My last day on Reddit I shared an excited post about a fun thing in a hobby sub of mine and I got such awful negative responses and people telling me I was attention seeking. It was really ugly. So that was pretty much when I decided to uninstall my Boost app and switch to Lemmy full time
What app are you using? So far I’ve tried Liftoff, but I’m looking for something closer to Relay

Well that’s that I guess. No more Reddit on my phone.
FTFY: No more Reddit.
on my phoneApollo refugee here. Wefwef and Lemmy are very nice :)

Can’t wait for more Reddit refugees
Former RIFer here.
The popularity of this community might finally get me into pirating, lol. I subbed out of curiosity.
I like that this community is dedicated to the concept of piracy based on their principals. I’m not involved, but I appreciate it

Same. It seems like it’s far less corporate and more along the lines of early Reddit.

This is my first time joining an online community from the beginning. I’m so hype for this.
