I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.
Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.
Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.
All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!
Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.
Have you heard of Mlem? It’s in beta, and not really quite ready for everyday usage yet, but it’s inspired by Apollo and the dev is working hard.

I just downloaded this. The UI looks good enough for me. I even placed the app where Apollo is for me, so I don’t instinctively go to Reddit lol
Thanks very much! I will download the beta app and test it out. If I have any suggestions or bugs to report, where should I be sharing them?

Messages/Notifications aren’t implemented yet, FYI. But the dev is working hard to get at least all the basics up by July 1
