I run a few groups, like @[email protected], mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.
Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.
Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.
All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!
Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.
To be completely honest I don’t like it. It could be the app I’m using (Jerboa) but it’s just missing so many features. For example, comments are shown in seemingly random order with no way to sort
That specific issue is a jerboa issue. I’ve given up on it until it matures a bit. Just using the website for now.
I’m seeing hot, top, new like in Reddit (although it’s missing “best” but that was never my favourite algorithm).
I’ve found using the mobile app way easier than Jerboa. I feel like Jerboa may become something nice, but it just isn’t there yet for me.
Jerboa is in Alpha so there is tons of features missing in it. You’ll want to use desktop for full functionality for now.
