Hope people have patience and stick with it. I have no interest in going back to reddit.

Well unlike reddit the official app is great for lemmy.

Ditto. The influx seems to be causing some instances to be overloaded but I see it as a good sign? Hope people are patient with the transition.

At least for me downloading their app jeroba makes the experience much nicer. Haven't had the issues I had on the website though it's a bit taxed because of the influx of users. Expected.

It's also up to us not to fuck this up. Let's not turn this into a toxic hate-filled dystopia lol.

Never thought that reddit would make so many gaffes to push me to use... bing chatgpt search.

No. All I got from reddit was negative interactins and videos of decapitations... I think this is a good time to get away from that place.

I don't think enough people hate themselves to go to the official app after using a 3rd party one. I tried multiple times before I moved to Joey and Joey is the only reason I browse reddit at all. Using the official app is like trying to swim with a full suit of armor on and a migraine.

Agreed. I'm on board with that and actually like the idea of looking around for something new. I'm hoping lemmy will be a fun place to spend time, I'm done with reddit.

This app is like... a soft fluffy blanket. Love it.

Yes, there's an apple one but not sure if it's official. Mlem or something.

Bookmarking this. I may try to actually contribute something to these communities once I figure it all out. I like to kearn new stuff. Thanks for the info!

I personally don't understand wanting to go back... reddit is so unpleasant as it is. All that made it tolerable was 3rd party. I'd rather go back to imgur than reddit.

I was thinking that too. Reddit is full of gasligjting and thinly veiled racism/sexism and bigotry... hundreds of comments piling on someone based on a one sided story or a video often ending in doxxing and harrassment.

Or at the very least the volunteers do the same thing. We need volunteers to keep the strike going lol!

I use jeroba but it's android. There's also lemmur but it won't load for me on that and jeroba is the"official"one.

For me definitely laziness.

Joey has a translate option. Would be nice for jeroba to have that too.
