I don’t regret switching This app has been significantly healthier for my mental health. No infinite scroll, just what’s important.
Regardless of whatever app you may be using (I’m just using a web browser), the threadiverse is not an app.
You know there are a good number of compatible apps out there, right? I say this only because you might not, and should be made aware if so.
Oh—yeah, I probably don’t know much. Admittedly I think I’m a lot less tech savvy than most of the people I interact with here, I don’t even get most of the Linux memes. I just know it’s less toxic than Reddit (not a high bar admittedly) and there seem to be fewer bots. I have an app called “Mlem” on my phone that I got when I was trying to get off Reddit and that’s as much as I know about how I got here >.> I know there’s some related recommended lists but I haven’t converted over to any of them yet. Always open to suggestions though if there’s something you’d particularly like me to check out!
I enjoy Racoon on Android. Multi-account support if that matters to you. Also, the swiping right / double-right / left for like / save / dislike is nice. Edit: Oh, and of course it’s available outside of the Play Store, which was also a selling point for me.
I was still lurking r/all after deleting my old account when they killed 3rd party apps. Definitely a sign old reddit is getting the axe with some excuse about safety.
“We need you to login to help identify bots!”
“We need your photo ID to stop bots from making new accounts!”
Most of them won’t transfer over, or they’d be here, maybe a couple 100 or so… then they’ll piss and moan about the lack of posts.
Same reason twitter users are still there, or moved to Blue sky, or Threads and not Mastodon, corpo tit is sparkly.
I will steal that last half sentence of you, thank you very much.
I guess it would be pretty hypocritical of me to say no, but no
Joke aside, reason being that I thought most sensible people had left by now anyways, I had a super fun time on the fediverse canvas this year, it was the first time I participated here and the first time I ever did that type of event, I was on reddit for 15 years but when they did those events it always seemed so big and everyone was tripping over each other. There was some problems but it seems like everything was peacefully resolved and everyone got to present their community’s art or message on the space for the most part. It was just cozy
the better question would be , are reddit users ready for lemmy ?
the last wave proved that they’re not, but i bet they’ll make a pit stop before returning to us empire capture media like many did in the last surge.
old reddit is the only good thing about reddit
I can still use old.reddit without issues and without login so maybe it’s something regional.
If you need a cats or Pokémon or worldbuilding thread from old.reddit just hmu and sometime I might fetch it.
You can use redlib to view reddit without an account still.
Me too
I dont want to sound prorreddit but “yet” exist other ways: https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib-instances/blob/main/instances.md
Thanks stranger!
