jbernardiniLemmy invite to local subreddit going badly. Hook a brother up?
FaceDeerA lot of users use the official app and are on new Reddit, and the only "disruption" that they noticed was the protests themselves. They have no idea the damage Reddit has done to moderators and may not even notice the resulting decline in content quality as the smaller subset of people who post and moderate the most wander away to newer pastures.
But over time, they will notice. More and more subreddits will become the domain of uninterested powermods and repost bots. It takes time for a giant to fall, Digg didn't turn into Reddit overnight.
SentinianThis is the biggest thing. A lot of my friends simply think Kbin and Lemmy are inferior and look outdated, which they are if you have only used the social media site called reddit, not the link aggravater called reddit
LazaroFilmExperiencing Lemmy through a native app like Memmy or even a WPA like Voyager (former WefWef) is so much nicer than the default interface.
MereoNow you can experience the greatness of http://old.lemmy.world or http://old.lemmy.ca
I know I’m outnumbered here, but I always hated the old Reddit interface. Is it better on desktop or something? I’m only really ever on mobile.
In my opinion, Desktop. I use an app on my phone.
The D QuuuuuillIt was more useful than new Reddit, and really only worked on desktop. New Reddit was slower and less customizable for specific subreddits. On desktop it also was impossibly unintuitive and hard to use for users who relied on accessibility tools.
Absolutely superior on desktop, especially for older users who started out with old.reddit. New.reddit is like forcing a social media site format like twitter or instagram on a forum type of website like reddit. Inefficient and lots of wasted space.
On the other hand, lemmy web apps like Alexandrite provide a modern look while at the same time maintain the efficiency of a forum-style site.
I drastically prefer old.reddit for desktop. For mobile, I used Baconreader personally. I wasn’t a fan of either on the mobile website.
Altima NEOI mean yeah, its specifically a desktop interface
It’s a desktop interface and it works best on desktop but I will say, I hated the mobile app so much that before I had found RIF i used old reddit in on my phone. I still use it whenever I need to search something on Reddit on my phone, with the auto redirect extension
The old Reddit site straight up shows more relevant info. The space on the page where it shows people’s comments (or text in case of self/ask type posts) is substantially bigger, compared to the “new” Reddit page which is clearly designed to optimize ad impressions.
Holy crap I need my instance to support this asap
ijeffaggregator.
This is what happens when I try to type while sick :c
…I honestly thought that was a deliberate pun, because Reddit as link aggregator was not optimal, either…
