Not sure if this is the right place but I need to get off Twitter/X, I would love to use Mastodon but the hurdle feels bigger than Reddit to Lemmy. The Mastodon client feels uncomfortable to me for some reason, and I guess unlike reddit/lemmy where you have a group of people talking about specific topics, I am interested in following specific people on Twitter - a fraction of whom are on Mastodon. I don’t want to support Musk or his platform but I’m struggling to find a replacement.
I guess if he starts charging for it the decision will be made for me 😅
That’s what I thought, but not keen on it having ads/subscription model. I’d be happy to pay one off but that isn’t available (at least yet). I understand the guy needs to eat, but right now I for me personally there isn’t a value add vs. the FOSS clients.
I think the answers you will get from users who are on lemmy will tend to be positive 😁
- Old reddit redirect
- Reddit enhancement suite
Not sure how much you need these anymore 👀
Not sure just mildly infuriating 😅
Also infuriating: the number of my friends who have installed this shitty app 😑
I’m also using connect. I find the searching for communities to be terrible and a couple of other issues, but the bread and butter of reading posts, comments, commenting is very comfortable. I’d recommend it too right now.
I think over the next few months we are going to see quite the pace of changes in lemmy technically, as new features are introduced. I would be careful with saying you’re happy to wait because something stable will be the result. I think it’s going to be a case of racing to keep up and, despite the developers best intentions, it will have bugs too. Hopefully over time it will be less blatantly obvious than now with other clients, but don’t give up on sync when it launches and is not the sync for reddit experience you’re used to! I’m sure he’ll get there in the end :)
Interessant. Ik heb eigenlijk niet op het abonneren-knopje geklikt, nu wel. Even wachten wat nu komt!
Would you mind sharing some? 😃
There are some good Telegram accounts for this if you want an alternative to Twitter, perhaps there are fedi options too but I’m unfortunately unaware if so
Sorry to ruin the fun but it stands for “Personal Computer Memory Card International Association”
There is a joke around the name, as you said, though :)
