Having recently given Lemmy (via the Jerboa app) & kbin (via just their web app – since that’s all there is) a test drive…
Lemmy is okay, but the app is extremely glitchy right now, throwing constant “unable to convert to JSON” errors. (I’m copying this comment before I hit submit, because I’ve already lost one lengthy comment due to those errors) FOLLOW-UP EDIT: I was never able to submit this comment via Jerboa, so here I am posting my comment on the website.
And Kbin is mostly just broken on phones.
The interface is completely confusing and cryptic. As far as I can tell, once you navigate off the home page, there are no links back?
And after several minutes of trying to subscribe to a “magazine”, I finally figured out that the button is rendered off-screen, and you have to scroll to the right to find it.
The Sync for Reddit dev just announced that Sync for Lemmy is going to be developed. Sync for Reddit is one of the very high quality 3rd party reddit apps that will be shutdown later this month. So you’ve got that to look forward to.
Yep… I’m a long time Sync for Reddit user. A good client can go a long way to making the fediverse good. I use Mastodon a lot more than Twitter now, thanks to Megalodon & more recently, Trunks.
