More than anything else, I'm going to miss the easy access to reliable answers by appending reddit to whatever I'm searching for in Google

Hello, new reddit refugee here. I've been hearing about the fediverse and mastodon some time now. Heard about lenny a couple of months ago, but didn't feel the need to make an account at the time. With the dumpfire that's going on it reddit I figured it was high time I jumped ship.

I have a question that might sound stupid. Is there a way to get the same functionality as reddit's custom feeds in lemmy? Where you have multiple feeds that are "subscribed" to different sets of communities.

Man that looks good

I use lithium. The free version has some limitations like not being able change the app to darkmode (although from what I remember the pages of the book itself can be changed to white/sepia/dark even in the free version). It has cross-device progress sync too, but I can't remember if it was there in the free version). Worked well enough for me. Decided to get the pro version after a couple of years cause I had been using it a lot and didn't have any gripes with the app. (Look for it in mobilism if you don't want to pay for the pro version)

I thought season 1 was terrible, but then i watched the rest
O boi

The rest of it is to season 1, what season 1 is to last air bender

I too wish the game specific subs migrated. Like Forza subs

• r/forza
• r/ForzaHorizon
• r/ForzaOpenTunes
  GI subs
• r/Genshin_Impact
• r/Genshin_Lore
• r/GenshinImpactTips Destiny subs
• r/destiny's
• r/DestinyFashion
• r/DestinyLore
• r/DestinyMemes
• r/DestinyTheGame DRG sub
• r/DeepRockGalactic

Also miss the anime subs. /c/anime looks like it could grow into r/anime. But others like

• r/absolutelynotanimeirl
• r/animeirl
• r/anime_irl
• r/Animewallpaper
  don't have lemmy equivalents at the moment.

I couldn't give two shits about political mumbo jumbo, but I do care about defederation.

Made my account during the reddit exodus some years ago. Could you explain how bad the situation is? Like which major instaces am I defederatd from (again, don't really care about any particular instances, just the accessibility of any major subreddit equivalents that are hosted there - dunno what they're called in lemmy)

While you're at it could you also recommend a good instance to migrate to? Ideally a populated one that doesn't get involved in this left right communist capitalist bullshittery too much.

Can you link me to this enshittificatoon easy you mentioned?

I see. Yeah I kinda get what you mean. Thanks for the reply.

> but maybe a bit of a slowdown on the doomscrolling is a good thing.

Lol

Mostly communities for specific games. Like Destiny, Forza, Deep Rock Galactic, and that taboo anime game. I also miss the fanart communities. Hopefully these will grow here too over time, but who knows.

Wouldn't defederation be an issue, making most content inaccessible if I stay on this account? Sorry, I'm not entirely familiar with these things

Let's be real it's already okay for LLM companies steal anything and everything, they just don't say it out loud. A bunch of them were proven to have pirated, but suffered no consequences then, probably won't in the future.

Could you give more info on how to do that? Or maybe point me to somewhere I can find more info on it?

That's not quite what I meant. I'd like to group the communities I subscribed to based on topics and see posts from one set of related communities in one place. For instance, if there were communities related to piracy, I'd be able to group them together and see posts from those communities in one place, and have another group of communities related to music and be able to see posts from those communities in another place. Like you can see in the screenshots

Read on Leddit that Windows defender is good enough

I am more of a Remmy person myself

Hopefully lemmy will get there one day

Yes, multi-reddit. Although in the official and 3rd party apps those were called custom feeds. I like having posts from all communities related to a specific topic in one place.

Thanks for the breakdown.

If you don't mind me asking, why is it that some posts on mealtimevideos are still visible to me? The newest one I can see while viewing from here is from 9 days ago. I'm assuming this is a quirk of how defederation works, but not sure how exactly.
