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.
Looks neat, but I need a ELI5 on the instances/Fediverse/how it works in general (Looking at YT videos right now).
Also I miss the “hide all child comments” I had on reddit (or was it RES?).
Oh, and I’m open to android app suggestions :) I’m using “Now for Reddit” for reddit.
I’m using Jerboa on Android and I can click a comment to hide all children under it. On lemmy.ml on the website I can also hide children by clicking the little minus next to the username.
I just saw your comment appear without me having to refresh the page! Nice :D
I’ll check the app, thanks.
I’m guessing you hide children comments PER answer, I’m looking to hide them all automatically, but keep the possibility to expand them if needed
Also, I found this to be a pretty good ELI5 https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/
