Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn’t the thing that makes a social media site, it’s the engagement
So even if you’re used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!
If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they’re more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they’ll just go back to reddit
Me too. It feels like early reddit stages trying to figure out what subreddits and whatnot are as a newcomer. I’m slowly getting the hang of it. The jerboa app has been cool too!
Is that an app to log in to Lemmy instead of using a browser?
Yep! For Android, the app is called Jerboa. For iOS, the app is called Mlem. At least, those are the farthest along right now.
Yes the Jerboa app is already leagues ahead of Reddits Official app for me. Simple to grasp and nice usability, easy recommend for other refugees
