Nice to have a new place to hang my virtual coat and peer into the endless void of the internet.
It has become muscle memory for me to open the app. My phone seems so empty now.
Just gotta put a new app in its place!
actually yes, put the wefwef app there
Same. Hopefully a good Lemmy app can take the old place Reddit is Fun had
It was weird using Reddit Is Fun like I always do then it just suddenly stopped.
I can't create a community. I click the button and nothing happens. Any idea why? I'm trying to recreate a community from Reddit that really helped me when I was in a dark place.
That's what brought me here! I'll miss RIF, but I think it's time to get used to something new. I appreciate how welcoming everyone seems!
I'm really not ready. My Connect for Lemmy app is renamed to Lemmy is fun and is using the rif icon, it's hard to let go.
Whatever gets you through these trying times!
Slide refugee that has been here for a few weeks. I like it here!
Thank you for your warm welcome.
I never used a reddit ap, nor have I moderated, but I've watched the happenings and been incredulous at Huffman's (and subsequently Reddit's) behavior.
9 years and 33k Karma. Unfortunately it ends today.
Hello Lemmy. Guess this is where I'll go from now on.
Same here with years but less than 1k in Karma.
Had 200k+ karma on my main account and 30k+ on several other accounts (adult account, etc.). I don't think Huffman or Reddit know what they're doing. Anyway, hello Lemmy!!!
Came over a few days ago, and the infrastructure is so much better in concept than Reddit ever was.
I'm just glad I found a server that allowed me to register. Been trying for weeks. Lemmy.ml is closed for registration. Lemmy.world just spins when you hit the register button. Another instance just said my registration was pending.
I was interested to see what the rush was going to be like when Reddit mobile apps shut down. Looks like it might be pretty significant. Is this bigger than the blackout rush?
You have my axe! Ex digg/reddit here so this just feels like dejavu. Just trying to find an iOS/Mac app Iโm happy with, so far mlem does pretty good!
oddly boost still works for me right now
Relay seems to still be working for me. Also, my personal shreddit app is still working.
I suspect reddit are leaving them operational so reddit can bill them at the end of the month.
I just joined today and could use some assistance finding communities that I'd fit into. I'm into Cybersecurity and all matters of computing. If anyone has a suggestion please reply and thanks for having me :)
I'm not subbed to any, but I see a TON of them as a scroll through All. You'll be in good company!
Welcome!
https://lemmyverse.net/communities This is a good start in search for communities. You can enter your home instance(in your case lemmy.ca) by clicking on the house symbol at the top right and then search for communities like "security".
When you click on one, it'll automatically lead you to the adress based on your home instance and you can immediately subscribe to them form there.
https://lemmy.ca/c/[email protected] could be of interest for example
Lemmy is the Future! :D
god damn haha.
What app is most like Bacon Reader? I'm on Connect but feeling a little lukewarm so far
That's your best bet at the moment. Liftoff was another decent option but latest update doesn't see the lemm.ee instance for some reason. Things will get better on the app front in a month or 2 when Boost and Sync go live.
Hi there! What are some good subs for anyone trying to stay away from nsfw?
Yeah there's a checkbox for it under profile settings. There's a ton of great communities, I've subscribed to around 40. Once you get a good set of communities can just set your default to "Subscribed" in profile settings. That will be your front page. You don't really want to use "Local" because it may not be very active. "All" has a lot of stuff in it you may not want to see. There's a few communities where I don't ever want to see their content. See lemmyverse.net for community info. There's a lot of good communities on kbin as well (you can access those from Lemmy and vice versa).
