Honestly, yeah. Reddit has been part of my daily routine for 12 years now. Sure, a lot of the content is junk food for the brain, and reddit has changed a lot during that time, but I’ve also learned a lot of cool things and had a lot of interesting conversations there. Lemmy looks promising, but it’s still very nascent. The userbase is small, it’s missing a lot of the niche communities that you can find on reddit, and the tech is glitchy. Overall it feels a lot more like tinier than reddit (which duh, of course it does).

Reddit is also a bad habit that I’ve wanted to reduce for a while now, so maybe this is the shove I needed.

I know, right? People… respectfully disagreeing with one another? Having a… healthy and civil discourse?

Holy Moses, I almost forgot this was possible online!

Wowzers. No offense at all to the Jerboa devs but this really contextualizes for me just how bad the official app must be.

I want baconreader for Lemmy!

Snoo is the reddit mascot (lil alien with an antenna), and I guess reddit corporate refers to its employees as Snoos, which is so cringeworthy.

Ridiculous. As an employee, if you want me to wear the company’s logo, you better give me that shit for free. Then I might wear it.

I wonder if there are metrics anywhere about percentage of mobile users using the official app vs 3rd party apps. I’d be interested to see the breakdown.
