I went to Reddit today... - Beehaw

And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco. … And I realized I hadn’t been there for a week… And frankly didn’t miss it. I am really loving the beehaw (and Lemmy as a whole) community. Thanks for being open, welcoming, responsive, engaging, and just generally nice people. I’m happy to be here. :)

Haven't stopped using reddit, tbh. But my usage has noticeably dropped - haven't even commented on a single thing but one after installing Jerboa. Having an alternative really does help. I'm confident I can completely stop redditing on mobile by the end of the month as long as this community stays active.
Yeah, I'm unsure what to do. I'm lead mod for /r/SanAntonio a city I recently left, and I feel an urge to do something with it. Like use it to make a statement or something.
You guys with mod experience are really valuable, imo. Can't help with what you want to do with your reddit sub, but it would be great to see your subs here!

Honestly, the complexity of federated services isn't for mass adoption. And /r/SanAntonio users are some of the last I would expect to see adopt lemmy. And I feel I'd have to get comfortable with it myself before recommending others, as that comes with the obligation to help them out.

Like, why do thse two instances of this post have 1 common comment, and 1 missing? https://beehaw.org/post/473716 https://lemmy.pineapplemachine.com/post/5781

Also, what's with this 'search [email protected] on your instance to find this post and be able to comment on it' crap. I was linked to pineapplemachine from beehaw, maybe thats the other user's fault... idk. it's a real rough experience from the start.

When I was feeling overwhelmed by all the cumbersome clicks that come with getting used to lemmy, I found kbin to be a better way to just explore what's across all instances.

https://kbin.social/

It's a different project but can access and interact with everything on lemmy.

Is there a mobile app for kbin.social? I'd like to use that too since that's where I browse on my PC, but Jerboa doesn't seem to support it.

I'm not sure! I stopped using kbin after getting more comfortable with how lemmy works.

I think I remember something about a very early build for an app, but I'm not sure. You should make a thread and ask!
