    Personally I really like that lemmy is becoming more active and there’s more activity on mainstream topics outside the tech bubble right now.

    What I don’t like is my instance becoming overwhelmed.

    Which apps don’t support it? Webp is working pretty well for me. MacOS has been supporting it natively for a while and so do the Affinity apps. I haven’t had issues with webp in years.

    Edit: I’m on Windows now and support is decent too…?





  • Most third party apps are shutting down, unfortunately. The official app is pretty bad but what did it for me is how Reddit handled the whole situation. That’s worse than the API change itself. Reddit has in general gotten worse over time, so this is just the last straw.

    I wanted to be more active on lemmy for while but when I joined 2 years ago, the community wasn’t very active outside of some Linux bubbles, so I didn’t stay initially. Now it’s a much better situation and I don’t see myself going back.


  • Yeah it’s amazing that some people don’t realise how much the first iPhone changed. Smartphones were absolute garbage before it. Sure, my Windows Molbile phone had more features on paper but it was heavy af and the interface was terrible, buggy and cumbersome to use. The iPhone made that all easier and introduced UI patterns that are still being used in almost every product with a touch screen to this date.
