    Maybe it’s because reviews like “fuck u/spez, use lemmy instead” contain word “lemmy”?

    With the amount of time spent talking about Reddit on Lemmy that’s not too big of a surprise

    Boost for Reddit was great to me. Can’t wait for Boost for Lemmy to come out and even be able to support the devs

      Yeah I’ll defo support boost once it comes out. Even if I still end up using another app, was too late for the Reddit version.

        This is what I’m thinking of doing. I’ve been using boost for ages now and never donate. But after all this, and how quick he(?) went for Lemmy, I’m all for giving him a bit

    At first there was so network instability and compatibility problem that I used PWA and Jerboa and Connect and switched between them multiple times a day.

    Now I’m using Jerboa almost exclusively as everything seems more stable.

    I’m waiting for Sync 😊

        They’re one of the least reliable companies out there. Every other product gets cancelled within 2 years, and they’re constantly making major redesigns for no reason.

          It pains me to defend a corpo, but calling Google unreliable for their “fling shit and see what sticks” methodology for developing new products is inaccurate. Google/Alphabet is actually one of the most reliable corpos in the tech sphere, relatively-speaking, if you analyze their core products throughout the years.

          Yes, it does feel like Google retires projects faster than they instantiate them. But that’s by design. The core product (selling advertising on SERPs/YouTube/AdWords/etc) is about as reliable as it gets, and that’s where they get their money.

          Obligatory “fuck corporations.”

            Their core products meaning search and email, sure. Everything else is on the chopping block and randomly changes all the time.

            Remember when they bought Nest and literally bricked everyone’s thermostats? Tasks / reminders / whatever gets completely reworked every other year. They went through a chat phase where they released half a dozen different, incompatible chat apps, and also wrote a chat sub-system into every other app they had.

            They’re lunatics. If all they want to do is search and email, just do that, don’t waste time and consumer patience branching out into all these random things they’ll drop support for in two years.

        For me it’s pretty much all mastodon apps. I can’t even get to any lemmy apps except Memmy unless i search it by name. The Reddit app doesn’t show up for me though.

      Agreed. I’ve been using the website on my phone. I figure I’ll check out the apps again after they settle into themselves more.

          Yep. Then you find Voyager, vger.app where you install that website as an app, now you get a similar Apollo experience from the “old Reddit days.” That’s what I’ve used since day 3.

            Yep agreed voyager is basically Apollo for Lemmy. Of course still a long way to go but it’s close

              I just miss the rich text editing that Lemmy offers. I don’t care to learn the code or type it out. Eventually I’d like Voyager to get an app in the App Store as an option to build in these extra features.

          Some websites can be directly “installed” in you app drawer. They are really like an advanced shortcut for the mobile webpage. You probably haven’t seen it a lot because commercial webs that want to shove their propietary app down your throat disable this option.

          But both Lemmy and Mastodon have it enabled.

          To do so, click on options on your desired browser and you’ll find an “addto startup page” option or something along those lines.

            interesting. But that seems to rely on Chrome, which I’ve removed. I’m using Duckduckgo as main browser instead. So I just fireproof the login, bookmark and I’m good. Thanks for the explanation, though.

            edit: there seems to be a sandboxed webapps browser on f-droid

    I stopped using an “app” for Lemmy. Now that m.lemmy.world has wefwef built in, the web app is perfect. Honestly better than most of the native apps out there.

    That is reasonable. It is a more popular (by installation numbers) that fills a similar niche and close to 100% of everyone that installs a Lemmy app also installed a reddit app at some point. The algoritm should recommend reddit if you search for Lemmy
