Does everybody thinks that this migration is gonna change peoples mind about not using Reddit anymore ? Here's hoping.

I’m just here. Cause Apollo is dead :(

me too, but i think im honestly done with reddit. i miss a lot of my niche communities but I created lemmy versions of some and I'm cross posting some top posts from reddit just to get things going a bit.

i see a lot of possibilities with lemmy, there are already some great apps being made (my fave rn is memmy, not quite native ios like apollo, but has a really polished look and gestures feel natural it's easy to get the hang of)

Yea I’m using Memmy myself. I have never not hated the Reddit app so I’m also done with Reddit as a whole

their app is truly god awful

i downloaded that first after apollo died just to give it a shot, but it felt like a giant ad

sponsored posts everywhere, premium features plastered all over, i felt like there were micro transactions just to use it

the website isn't too bad with adblocker, but after what they pulled with Christian and Apollo, I'm just done.
