I run a few groups, like @[email protected], 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.
Liking it so far. I love that I can spin up my own instance. Only thing I’m missing is a multi-reddit type feature to combine communuties from multiple instances into one feed.
Excuse me if I misunderstood, but isn’t that the purpose of the “Subscribed” and “All” feeds on the home page of whichever instance you have an account on? Or do you mean some form of auto-discoverability?
It’s similar, but you get to choose a selected subset of subreddits—subscribed or not—and view only the contents of those. It’s used to combine subreddits of the same theme into one list.
Awh, I see! That would definitely be a nice feature to see.
Yes, it’s what @[email protected] said. Being able to combine multiple communities into one list. I think it would be especially useful here since the same/similar communities can exist on multiple instances.
I think they mean having multiple instances of a single community all grouped together. Like there’s three or four star wars communities. Would be great if we could create a meta community that shows them all.
