Recent recruit from Reddit. Finally made the jump. Love the apps like Boost, Thunder and Voyager.
I’m sure this will turn out great (just kidding, I was using sarcasm there).
You say that but thousands if not millions will buy into it.
We’ll see. Maybe, maybe not, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they faked subscriptions just like they fake users.
Just jumped the ship at the right time. The API wars were just a preview…
I hope all the lemmy instances are ready for a surge of users. Let’s encourage redditors to join Lemmy and learn the kinks and quirks by trial and error. Let’s be kind to the newcomers.
Lemmy admins, hold onto your butts
As soon as I read that I thought I’d make an account here.
Welcome! It’s weird here, but it’s great.
Welcome! Hope you like it here. I’m happy to see people are jumping ship despite the “it’s too complex to switch to Lemmy” false narrative.
Just gotta compare it to signing up for an email. You gotta choose a provider.
Same, fresh refugee here. I’ve tried mastodon before and I didn’t feel good with Fediverse, but only because I never really used Twitter. Surprisingly I only discover Reddit few weeks ago (to properly spend some time there… where was I all these years lol) I’m starting to like this fediverse though 😁
service that owes its popularity largely to its low barrier to entry signals higher barriers to entry
cool! please do.
A few years ago, everyone was wondering when Reddit would have its Digg moment
Reddit is just borderline unusable because of the API thing… The app is unusable, and Red Reader is just too bland to use.
Paywall forum, what can go wrong ?
It’s not even worth using for free
Next wave of reddit exodus coming soon…
I followed Reddit Sync to Lemmy during the API fiasco. Even then, it was better than reddit had been in years. It’s only gotten better.
What’s Reddit sync to lemmy?
Sync is an application that originally was designed to browse Reddit on Android. When Reddit destroyed 3rd party access, Sync was redesigned for Lemmy.
Same bro, I’m still on Sync typing this to you 😄👍
