I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.

Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.

Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.

All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!

Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.

    And often, you’ll find multiple communities on the same topic and you have to try to figure out which one looks like it will be better down the road

    I think that inevitability what will happen is that apps will have to create a “group” feature where you have clusters of communities at once. So if there are 2 gaming communities, you could group them, then click on that group to view all of the posts as if it were one subreddit.
