News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Just thought I'd point this out to anyone looking for an RIF alternative that's actually in the same vein as RIF (compact, simple, clean).

Boost was a Reddit app until today. They just added a preview to the Play Store for their Lemmy app with no fanfare.

Now trying out Connect for Lemmy. Seems to work fine with a few customization tweaks. Looks very similar to RIF.

What tweaks are you applying?

[–] Duvidl 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Mainly the layout as a list instead of cards one in the settings. Also, don't need the navigation bar all the time.

Thanks for that, I'll be applying those tweaks on Connect myself. boost looks cool, I've bounce from Jerboa to Wefwef and now to Connect, I think I'll hang out here for awhile unless I hear raving reviews about Boost

Connect has surpassed jerboa for me at the moment.

Wefwef is still incomplete, there's no block user or community (for when something gets spammy)

I also just hopped from Jerboa to Connect. I like the look and feel of Connect more. I'm coming from BaconReader and this is the closest experience to that I've found so far.

I just downloaded it, feels a bit leggy but also has a nice feel to it.
