Save your Lemmy homepage as a shortcut on your Home Screen, move your Reddit app and replace it with your Lemmy shortcut.
I just opened Reddit 5x today and had to figure out how to train myself not to use it. This seemed to help me, I hope it helps others too.
Stay strong brothers and sisters. Remember, the more we post, the better it gets.
Just switch to Jerboa. Yes, it’s a bit janky, but endure. It’s well worth it. Edit: forgot to write, a place where Jerboa icon is is the place where Infinity stood for 4 years. Same phone, yeah.
I wish, but I’m on iOS and the equivalent, Mlem, is straight alpha jank. I actually turned the spot Apollo used to be in, into a folder containing both the web shortcut, Mlem and also a shortcut to Lemmy Community Browser and use all three for different things for now due to feature disparity
I’m working on a iOS client that’s similar to Apollo, with the swiping upvote (my favorite feature lol). So if in a few days you want an alpha invite I can send it to you. It’s already at a point where it’s on par with Mlem but I’d like to spend a few days fine tuning a few things to get it to a place I would daily drive it.
Ooh what is Lemmy Community Browser?
Im on iOS. I have the beta mlem app. I mainly just use safari. The auto scrolling feed is annoying me. Is there a way to disable that?
Here’s the community browser: https://browse.feddit.de
I have to say, I kind of like that Android has a better app than iOS for once (albeit barely).
Just delete that other app. You can do it dude.
It’s definitely been a very interesting situation, in that it’s made many of us take a long hard look at what we are with concern to reddit… addicted. I expect some will rail against that classification but make no mistake, these apps / sites are designed to be addictive (iirc they call it ‘stickiness’).
As well as relentless scrolling throughout the day, I found I was wasting hours feeding into my depression doomscrolling before even getting out of bed. Regardless of what happens next, I’m not installing the reddit app or reinstalling my 3rd party choice (Infinity). Surprise, I’m now getting up much more quickly and starting the day in a better frame of mind.
I wonder how many users they’ve permanently lost through this debacle?
Yup, works wonders to stop me from opening apollo every other minute. Fuck spez
It’s just that I have to scroll so far to get new content. And I keep seeing old content that are two days old that stays on the top… I really to new stuff to crawl up!😅
There is a setting that you can disable “Show Read Posts”. This way you will only see new things :)
