When Boost for Lemmy went live, I didn't even hesitate to uninstall Reddit.

I stopped using Reddit the day boost went offline.

Boost for reddit still works fine

Not for all

You just need to be moderator of a sub, so just make one

Thankfully Boost came out the same week Relay went to monthly subscription only. I actually forgot I had set Boost to install automatically when the app was released.

I spent the few days before Boost was released giving the official Reddit app another shot, and remembering why I hate it so much.

Boost making it easy to sign up and get started was the final step on my path away from Reddit.

Same thing. I specifically waited for Boost for Lemmy to release in order to create an account. It feels familiar enough, so no problem.

Fuck reddit! I'm never going to contribute to that website.

What is Boost? Searching for it pulls up a bunch of different things.
