Lemmy enjoys growth as developers pivot from Reddit amid API charging controversy - Lemmy

I’d love to see some stats on reddit engagement now. Anecdotally, I logged in just to look at my usual subreddits (the ones that are open) and they seem dead.

I use RSS to get feeds for subs that are not active in lemmy.

Many posts are dog shit level now. Either looking for help or just garbage.

Check out r/lemmino lol.

Oh RSS feed is a good idea. The only sub I still check is r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks xd

EDIT: Sorry, I missed the “web based”. Today I’m incredibly distracted.

Feeder is pretty good if you use Android.

Feeder | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

An awesome Libre and Open Source RSS feed reader

No worries, but I’m a diehard PC user xd

I might end up with an open-source desktop app in the end, both Fluent Reader and Raven Reader look good.

I self host FreshRSS & RSS-Bridge in Docker and view everything in Fluent Reader (Linux), FeedMe (Android), and Read You (Android). I absolutely love it!
I tried out Fluent Reader (Windows) yesterday, but it was a bit buggy and lacked some necessary features, so I’m testing NewsBlur for now. The free version is kinda limited, but I love the training feature, and in general it feels the most user-friendly out of the 4-5 services/apps I tried yesterday.
