Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝

Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Can see clearly, this server is much slower than yesterday, like if thousands of users are switching here

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 year ago

Beehaw has been riddled with crashes. Its a growing pain, but kind of a good thing

Infinity for reddit user here, as much as I love the app, and the work the developer has done on it, and even though the app will continue on a subscription based model, I have had it with reddit, full fediverse citizen from now on

[–] OptimisticPrime@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I still have it working with the workaround of compiling it with my own API key, but decided not to update this any more. When it stops working like that I am out, not that I actually use it that much anymore.

Yeah switched to lemmy yesterday and currently finding it ok. I’m usually just on phone so it’s a little weird, but I’m here for the community XD

[–] Ab_intra@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Relay for Reddit is at least comming with a subscription model but to be quite honest I think I'll start using Lemmy much more.

Never really posted on reddit, but enjoyed scrolling on Apollo to while away the time. Sad to see it go, but excited to see what Lemmy has in store.

[–] manuel@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Quick heads up: if you loved Apollo (I can relate…) check out wefwef.app - it’s a pretty good clone for Lemmy!

[–] 8eyedcorsair@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Already got it, it definitely eases the transition from reddit.

[–] Datas_Cat_Spot@startrek.website 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The popularity of this community might finally get me into pirating, lol. I subbed out of curiosity.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I like that this community is dedicated to the concept of piracy based on their principals. I'm not involved, but I appreciate it

[–] beaumains@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not involved either. I definitely would never do anything so abhorrent and inconsiderate of rights holders who purchased their copyrights fair and square.

Never.

Ever.

Sync is out but infinity still works, Ill probably use both Reddit and Lemmy and see which app I stop using but so far what an easy switch. It's quite relaxed at the moment.

got my data takeout request from reddit just in time

ran powerdelete suite to delete everything

it took almost 3 weeks to process the data takeout request, that means it is computationally expensive, everyone should ask for it to send a signal

[–] PropaGandalf@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Same experience here. They needed 2 and a half week!

[–] RichardButt89@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was on Reddit for 13 years. I've been using sync for as long as I knew there was a mobile app. Lemmy seems really relaxed and I'm looking forward to it!

Infinity still working right?

[–] lucoso@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i prefer reddit UI, but, there is no way im going back to reddit

[–] d0hboy@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

Hi there - someone just mentioned a PWA (not even a full app, just a installable web page) called wefwef - look it up. It's pretty usable beyond some of the other android apps out there already. Again, I emphasize and agree with you that the Reddit app ecosystem's UI is still better at this point.

[–] juusukun@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I've been using RIF and old.reddit.com for as long as they existed. Reddit since the big Digg transition. Hope to never see the same happen to Lemmy!!

[–] Viper_NZ@lemmy.nz 1 points 1 year ago

If lemmy.ca ever turns evil, you can create your own Lemmy, with blackjack, and hookers..

Or just go to one of many others

[–] Endomlik@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Feels like the Digg transition.

[–] computerquip@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The magic here is that it can't happen. People can just start their own instance up and it's all open source.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just an FYI - some apps are still working as of this moment... But yeah, most of us know it's only a matter of time.

Honestly, the content seems higher quality here. Perhaps the cesspools of Reddit were hard to spot for those of us who lurked there for over a decade.

Quality over quantity. Cheers to a new horizon, everyone.

Guys, Connect for Lemmy is really good on Android.

[–] kmc@lemmy.genkmc.de 0 points 1 year ago

Can also recommend Wefwef. Great experience so far.

[–] YellowtoOrange@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

3k? I see 6.78K
