Now it's a matter of sustaining and slow growth. Hopefully. Best thing you can do to see Lemmy succeed is participate: comment, post, doomscroll All+Top Hou ;)

It'll take a while for some of the smaller communities to get critical mass. And that's okay, probably. Critical mass is here for the larger topics already. I'll do my best to help :)

I agree that their app sucks. But Lemmy also has a lot of rough edges (particularly a lack of good mod tools).

Also, if you believe reddit's released numbers, only 3% of their users even used third party apps. So maybe their app sucks, but the users are oblivious and will keep using it.

I finally got rid of it for good when I realized it had been running in the background for 21 of the previous 24 hours in spite of having background updates turned off and was killing my battery life. It’s a shit app.
