- Get bored.
- Open Reddit.
- Remember I’m not using reddit today.
- Open Lemmy.
- Go do something else.
- Go to number 1.
Yeah, same here. Lemmy sort of scratches the itch, but it’s a big itch.
Communities will need time to grow again, but I’m hopeful and cautiously optimistic
Same. It reminds me of the early days of reddit with those small communities. Unless reddit goes back on its changes, more and more people will come here.
We might get some dope 3rd party apps and then we’re golden.
Any time you feel the urge to open reddit, make a post on Lemmy…
It might take a minute, but this will be the new exciting place if we keep at it.
I have had Reddit is Fun in the home buttons on my phone for the last 10 years. I pulled my phone out of my pocket an muscle memoried Reddit open like 20 times today.
I just switched Jerboa into that spot. It is crazy how much that changed things.
That’s exactly what I did. RiF is still installed on my phone, but right now Jerboa has taken it’s place. I hope /u/talklittle does something with the backend that allows it to work with Lemmy, Kbin, or others.
I on the other hand feel free lol. I have no urge to check reddit and I’m still exploring lemmy. Also it’s just better to go do other things instead of wasting my phone battery just for the sake of wasting time.
Yeah, I’ll admit there is the excitement of having a new toy and figuring out how it all works. That takes away some of the boredom or time I’d be scrolling reddit.
