    The onboarding process was a tad confusing, but so far I’m really liking Lenny as a whole. Once the user base grows, the urge to go back to reddit will be close to zero.

    Edit: I’m also really enjoying Lemmy as well

        I said this on another comment, but it is worth repeating, at least for me…

      Omg this. I can’t believe how bad the Reddit app is when scrolling.

      I have an iPhone 13 Pro and the dropped frames were just so jarring.

        If you drop frames on any modern iPhone your app is fucking dog shit. No offence intended to smaller devs etc, but a big corpo like raddat has no fucking excuses x

      Got a link to it, I had Sync for Reddit, wondering if I have to buy a new app, or just get it to transfer over. If nothing else, my GF LOVED the sync app, she was complaining already about how she hates not having ‘our app’ anymore.

    The Road goes ever on and on, Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.

    Ngl I’m wandering around here a bit blind. If anyone can answer some simple, stupid questions that would be fantastic.

    What’s the difference between lemmy.world and lemmy.ml? Is one more popular?

    What app are you guys using? I’m torn between Memmy and Mlem.

    This is less important but: can you have profile avatars? I didn’t see them on one app but did on another, kinda odd.

    Anyway, fuck Spez.

      Bear in mind most apps have only been in development for a couple of weeks at most and they’re all prioritising different features. You can always log into the mobile site and upload an avatar that way if you can’t yet do it in whichever app you’ve settled on.

      (For your other question, as claymedia explained lemmy.world and lemmy.ml are just two instances of many that are both running the Lemmy software, with different signup rules and different communities hosted there. But since you can access the communities from wherever, just pick whichever home instance you like and get subscribing)

      Lemmy.world has open account creation, while Lemmy.ml requires an essay to create an account. For that reason, I believe .world has more users. But you can access content from either one no matter which you make an account on. Similarly, you could pick another instance or even host your own and still see and post content to other instances in the Fediverse.

      I’ve tried out Mlem and Memmy, and so far I have preferred Memmy. The dev has been improving it at an insane rate too, so if you don’t love it yet, just wait a couple weeks and check again.

      I think some instances have profile pics disabled? I’m not entirely sure though.

      Fuck u/spez, indeed.

      There are a lot of servers, I am on lemm.ee for example. Most are federated with each other so you can see and interact with every post from every community, so usually it doesn’t matter which one you sign up with.

      Sometimes a server gets maintenance issues or makes moderation decisions that make users want to move, and portable accounts aren’t a thing yet in the Lemmy code, so some people have accounts on more than one server. Portable accounts is a top requested feature, so hopefully the dev implements it in a near-future update.

    Boost for Lemmy just appeared in the Google Play store yesterday as a “coming soon” app. (by the same author, too).
