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.

    To be completely honest I don’t like it. It could be the app I’m using (Jerboa) but it’s just missing so many features. For example, comments are shown in seemingly random order with no way to sort

      Jerboa is in Alpha so there is tons of features missing in it. You’ll want to use desktop for full functionality for now.

      Hadn’t even noticed that until I saw your post.

      But I think the app is in very early stages of development and until Monday the (very low) amount of Lemmy users didn’t even really justify having an app. So I’m hoping with this massive influx things will pick up quickly.

      edit: I just looked it up to see if it really can’t be done or if the setting is hidden away somewhere. It seems a PR was just merged to add this functionality ~ 9 hours ago - link so the next version will have this 🎉
