& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?

15 year club on reddit. I've parted a few weeks ago and not coming back.

I hope lemmy gets good and better content.

14 year club. Also not going back to mobile browsing Reddit. I was a baconreader user for more than a decade. RES and old.reddit seems unaffected so far but Connect for Lemmy is working well. Happy to see some traction here.

Wefwef is incredible. I've never seen a web app that's even half as technically impressive, and it gets 2-3 major updates a day. Huge hats off to the devs.

2-3 major updates a day.

as a QA Manager that makes me deeply nervous

I moved over here a while ago. Doing great so far, loving the community, though I'm doing a lot of lurking at the moment cause I have to keep reinstalling my app for testing.

Currently using thunder, working on contributing to the project cause I liked the early alpha so much. New updates come frequently, looks nice, functions great, cross platform.

Try WefWef (wefwef.app URL) and Liftoff. Awesome apps!

I have been trying Jerboa. No real complaints about the app, I just want to see the more niche spaces get more activity

[–] TronnaRaps@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've been using Jerboa as well and I find it crashes quite a bit. When I hit back, or the back arrow it'll just shut down. I'll give it a fair shot, tho.

Same, i'm on Connect for Lemmy now. I've heard about wefwef but I'm not sure what exactly the deal is or how to set it up.

I never used any Reddit app other than the official one but I wanted to check out Lemmy as an alternative and I’ve gotta say, I’m liking it a lot so far! I’m on wefwef as well and it’s a pretty good experience. I’ll probably start contributing to some of the communities I’m interested in to help them grow and hopefully the growth continues across the platform!

I’m also looking into hosting my own instance, I might work on getting that set up in the next couple weeks.

Only issue I’ve seen is that it’s been a little slow here and there, but I understand that it’s in the growing pains stage so I’m not too worried.

It feels so weird without my easy access to niche porn. Like I can get porn anywhere, but some of that niche stuff, it's hard to find that stuff again.

Have you browsed the lemmynsfw.com communities?

Porn May do better on Lemmy than Reddit in the long run. Advertisers don’t like porn.

Edit: you may need to logged in to that instance to see the communities? Lemmy explorer helps NSFW communities

[–] Blamemeta@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, but they're really weirdly restrictive about fictional porn.

[–] Dark_Blade@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If you’re talking about loli, that was banned on Reddit too.

[–] Blamemeta@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago

More like gore/dubcon stuff. Plenty of gore subs, and theres more dubcon than you can shake a stick at. And the niche stuff still isn't there.
