It's not the kids, not the lurkers, not the mods... y'all just nice people. Lemmy's got a good vibe going... or at least enough windows that we can close if the vibe gets shit.

Lemmy kinda sucks for me right now. Laggy, buggy, awkward.... I love it. Looking forward to being part of its growth and development.

I tried a few apps and they didn't work for me at all (Jerboa and Thunder). Just downloaded connect for lemmy and that seems to be working. HAHAHAHA as I was typing this out I got an error lmao

Edit: after getting the error, I assumed it didn't go through and tried to re-send the comment. Connect gave me no confirmation that it had actually gone through and proceeded to give me another error. So now I'm seeing I put the comment twice on wefwef.app. It's wild trying out like 5 apps in one day. Can't wait for Sync to come!

Jerboa hasn't given me any issues, admittedly I only downloaded it this morning. I like wefwef, especially the gestures. I couldn't figure out how to change connect from all to local or subscribed, but that super simple in jerboa.

As I understand jerboa doesn't support the instance specific emotes though currently.

ABSOLUTELY looking forward to sync!!!!

Yes ! Cannot wait for sync!

Jerboa wasn't letting me sign in lol. I also found it to not be super smooth compared to wefwef and the clients I'm used to on Reddit. Sync could not get here fast enough.

Had a lot of issues trying to use the mobile webpage. Trying the Connect app now and pretty happy. People have mentioned Jerboa and I'll be trying that tomorrow to see which app I prefer. I can honestly say both work better than the official Reddit app. And I have actually given the reddit app a try before this whole mess and found it totally unusable. Honestly as far as app options Lemmy is already winning. Just needs the content and I'm happy.

I think it might be broken right now.

Connect has been a great replacement for Boost

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Boost has an app coming up for Lemmy

And you can register to download it right now in the play store.
