All the reddit apps sucked at first too. One of the best apps for reddit, Sync, the developer decided to start making a Lemmy client and he's currently working on the first version now. There are like 10 other Lemmy clients in the works too. But the Lemmy (and kbin) code is also just now getting lot of eyes on it and improvements and enhancements are being worked on daily. So give it 6 months to a year and Lemmy will be hoppin' far, far, far, more than it is now.
