Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they’ve been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving…
Personally I came over bc the app I used stopped working (boost). Lemmy seems to have the same content I used reddit for:
- US politics headlines
- Memes
- Niche communities
I don’t plan on going back to reddit unless it’s via Boost. Fediverse is better anyway
The app will continue to work if you are a moderator of any subreddit… I’ve got a few subreddits that I created myself, with only me in it, and because of that I can still use the app.
Considering deleting my account however…
Poor one out for Boost! I’m on the waiting list for his new Boost for Lemmy. Can’t wait.

Pour*, but ya. I used sync and I loved it. But I also used the free version of boost. I’d probably go with whichever one came out first 😂
Sync was the first app that looked nicer AND improved usability for me, after almost a decade of RIF. So I paid for the dev version to support it, and don’t regret it even with what happened.
I have really enjoyed Jerboa while waiting for Sync, can recommend. It’s on the Play Store and native android (+ open source on GitHub)
