    Its so nice being on a platform where the first 1000 comments on every post aren’t just low effort jokes.

      I haven’t even considered this. Most users on Reddit are lurkers. It doesn’t take many of us to make new communities worth visiting

        Former lurker checking in, trying to take this new start on Lemmy as a way to participate more and hopefully contribute a bit, I wonder how many will do the same coming from reddit.

          I am! Mostly lurked because by the time I got to threads they were already too popular and were flooded with hundreds of comments.

          I definitely am. Not a huge talker but I’m really trying to do my part here. It also helps that this community just feels a lot more welcoming.

      Coming to a comment thread to reply “this” feels so cheugy. When I think of the heydey of reddit, I think of 2011 in my dorm room doing the grow a college subreddit. And here we are twelve years later and the best experience you can get now is exactly that same experience.

        A month or two ago I got a bunch of downvotes for explaining why I didn’t like a game. The people responding said it was because my comment was “too long.” It was like six sentences. Why are these people on Reddit instead of Twitter?

      I was kind of bummed when I realized it wasn’t a native app, but so far it’s been working great regardless.

        I’ve added it to my Home Screen and to be honest I can barely tell it’s not a native app. It’s shockingly well put together so far.

          Until I realized that there’s no haptic feedback.

          It’s still the greatest alternative out there because it’s very similar to Apollo and not just “inspired by”. I don’t even know if haptic feedback is possible on PWA but I guess time will tell.

          Same, that’s what I’ve been doing and it really just feels like using Apollo again.

          Edit: once I’m able to save posts to my profile, long press to download, and organize groups of communities it will be indistinguishable (for me anyway, a mostly-lurker)

          I’d agree. Wefwef is great, although it isn’t as smooth as a native app it seems. But it’s very good regardless. May also be it is a little iffy with iOS 17? Not sure.

      +1 to native app, it’s part of what made Apollo great

      What do you mean by “join the Wefef developers to make a native app”

      Are you saying you wish they would join forces and start or is Wefwef already on it?

      I like the look of wefwef a lot, coming from Apollo but I just don’t love web apps for things like this - so a native app from them would be awesome!

        With iOS 17, web apps will get more features to make them feel more native. It might be so close that it will be hard to tell the difference between a web-developed native app and a PWA. Wefwef is already really nice and it’s mere days old. I can’t wait to see where they take it.

      Sync and Boost officially are.

      Infinity for Everything (Fediverse) is on GitHub.

      wefwef and Memmy are starting to feel like Apollo already.

      Connect seems to be inching closer to Relay with each update, and Jerboa gives off RiF vibes.

      People need to post about this on reddit more to perhaps encourage the other devs to do the same; might’ve actually worked for Boost cuz the dev didn’t originally plan to port it to Lemmy it seems

      Sync and Boost officially are.

      Infinity for Everything (Fediverse) is on GitHub.

      wefwef and Memmy are starting to feel like Apollo already.

      Connect seems to be inching closer to Relay with each update, and Jerboa gives off RiF vibes.

      People need to post about this on reddit more to perhaps encourage the other devs to do the same; might’ve actually worked for Boost cuz the dev didn’t originally plan to port it to Lemmy it seems

          Probably because blahaj is on 0.17.4, and Jerboa only supports 0.18 and later right now.

          Use wefwef or Thunder. And Connect and Liftoff are on the playstore already.

          Jerboa is so incredibly buggy right now though, that it barely worked for me at all. I just switched to Liftoff. It also has its fair share of bugs but at least functions almost reliably.

      Won’t all nsfw content be invisible to third-party apps?

      So people aren’t paying to keep reddit alive, they’re paying to have some advertiser friendly, bot-ridden husk of reddit available outside the official app.

      Those outsized API fees don’t even get you the original reddit experience, it’s disgusting.

      I don’t blame the dev, but I also don’t understand his decision.

    Yeah some of the app devs are going to implement support for lemmy while also continuing to support reddit.

    Looking at this from a business perspective, I think that would be the smartest move. When a business partner unilaterally jacks up the price, while it might feel satisfying to tell them to go fuck themselves, it’s probably not the smartest move. The smart move is to continue doing business while making partnerships with others just in case the asshole partner jacks up the price again.

    I think it might be a thing where these apps will use lemmy for the free version while offering reddit for a subscription. If this is the case, we’ll see a gradual increase of users on lemmy with a gradual decline of users on reddit. Older people who stubbornly stick to reddit will pay the subscription, while younger people that can’t afford a subscription to reddit (and have no attachment to it anyway) will use the free versions and use lemmy.

          I like the minimal UI of Tildes much like I heavily preferred the old reddit page design. It’s not fancy but it’s very functional, and Tildes is deliberately designed the way it is to discourage low effort content (e.g. no image/video embedding). I go to Tildes for the discussions and I come to Lemmy for the more “fast and loose” atmosphere

            That makes a lot of sense. The culture on there is more focused on text based communication which would probably help keep out advertisers since pictures and videos are so heavily relied upon for consumerism. I will see if there are any scripts I can run to make the site more pleasing to my eyes.

        Stealth never has had account integrations because its only a reddit viewer, and I think recently its also switched over to just web scraping old.reddit.com
