Knossos,

The moment that boost stopped working I moved to Lemmy.

thesqueakywheel,

The creator of boost is making a Lemmy app. I’m very excited to see it. I loved boost

This all made me realize while I had a reddit account for awhile, I never truly was on it much at all until I discovered Boost. Then it became a daily part of my life. Looking forward to the new Boost while I check out the other apps.

YSK, you can edit titles here.

free_owl716,

No, I’m replacing it with Lemmy.

Mane25,

The only time I’d use Reddit now is if I had a specific question about a specific topic that’s only covered there.

As far as browsing for fun goes it’s Lemmy all the way, it’s so much nicer than Reddit.

Who is Lenny?

UnbeatenDeployGoofy,

As much as I want to move on to the fediverse, there are occasions where Reddit is better, such as finding specific questions that were answered; it’s like the stack overflow for general life. Now I just browse the cached version if I need to search for something like that.

BrokenToshy,

I just use both. Lemmy for general browsing and Reddit when I want a more specific community that isn’t around yet.

I was never a 3rd party app user really as I just use old.reddit through the browser on my phone so until old.reddit is killed off I’ll probably continue to use both. Once thats gone though I won’t be using Reddit, new UI is truly awful

Joe_0237,

I think you meant to post on asklenny xD

dorron,

Boost stopped working

This works great

No reason to go anywhere

Deepus,

Same here. What app are you using now? Im waiting for boost for lemmy to come out and using Jerboa for now.

dorron,

Eagerly awaiting boost for lemmy

Using connect for now - purely based on a 1m browse of the play store

Yep, reddit killed reddit.

cantstopthesignal,

TBF though, they killed reddit so that’s good.

pixelPastry,

I use lemmy occasionally. I do feel the impact of a significantly smaller community though. A lot of the subreddits I would regularly check are not even here. So unfortunately for now, I’m forced to use the official app. Tried the RSS route too, but it seems it would be too expensive for me.

I’m sure the lemmy community will continue to grow, so I’ll stick around.

arghya_333,

I didn’t get why RSS would be expensive. Are you talking about time expensive?

pixelPastry,

All the apps I checked asked me subscribe. Couldn’t view anything without it. Maybe I haven’t found a free to use app on iOS.

Makeshift,

There are niche reddit communities I might still interact with.

But I have a combo of NoScript/adblock/ublock origin hard mode and a cancelled premium making sure they don’t get a penny from me, and I’ll prefer to post any useful info on Lemmy instead.

thanks_shakey_snake,

Gotta block those ads! I’m mostly staying away from Reddit, but if I do visit, it’s Firefox with uBlock, even on my phone.

Also, PSA: You can use uBlock in your web browser on your phone!

ilikemoney,

I’m going the supplementation route for now. Reddit official app is not enjoyable to use. I currently have a work around for my 3rd party app of choice. If the work around ever fails and reddit doesn’t improve their app, I’m hopeful Lemmy will grow enough in the meantime to fully fill the reddit void.

nostradiel,
@nostradiel@lemmy.world avatar

What kind of workaround do you have?

ilikemoney,

I created a private subreddit, which made me a moderator. Moderators still get access via 3rd party apps apparently

nostradiel,
@nostradiel@lemmy.world avatar

Well done, mate, that does really work. Untill Boost for Lemmy is out I’ll stay with the big brother. THX a lot. (y)

m4tthu,

I will be if I can get a good app to use on my phone. I’d also love to see some qol features like RES offers for my browser. But I am enjoying it so far!

I like using Connect for lemmy so far. A little getting used to but going good.

burndown,

How does it compare to Jerboa?

Sharkwellington,

Not OP but I’m finding it more intuitive. I come from RIF and I feel the experience is similar to that. I was spending a ton of time on Jerboa just figuring out where the heck things were.

burndown,

Just downloaded it and it does feel a bit more polished than Jerboa

For the most part I have, there are a few subs that i’d like to see here but Lemmy is still kinda new so it’ll take time.

I’ve also dropped twitter for mastodon but same issue there too.

I really like the federation feature like the ability to respond to Lemmy via mastodon.

PersnickityPenguin,

Wait, what is this feature? Are they linked somehow?

t0m5k1,
@t0m5k1@lemmy.world avatar

Go to whichever comment/post on a lemmy instance you’re trying to comment on and copy the link in that little colorful icon below/above the comment/post (that’s the fediverse icon and the fediverse-wide interoperable link).

Then just paste that into your search field on your mastodon instance, and the rest is self-explanatory from there.
