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.
Yes, totally. Searchign and suscribing to other communities and instances it’s a but cumbersome. Hell, even on Jerboa if I open the “name” of other instances it will try to open it in a browser.
Otherwise, as long as people keep comenting and bringing content this seems a good place.

These issue trackers should fix that!
I hope they get addressed soon.
