Definitely a learning curve but WefWef has solved a lot of my initial issues. Also seems like a lot less obvious bots and garbage than Reddit, which was getting pretty bad.

But so far Iโ€™m glad to be on something decentralized and excited to see what this looks like a year from now.

I just posted this in another unrelated thread, but relevant here as well: https://wefwef.app was the key for me. It's nearly EXACTLY like Apollo. Installed on my Home Screen and put where the Apollo icon was. (Apollo moved to a special folder to commemorate its memory.) You guys, I've got to be honest, I didn't think Lemmy was going to work out for me, but with wefwef, I don't feel like I'm missing a beat. Looking forward to Lemmy and the fediverse continuing to grow!

  • No affiliation with wefwef, just hoping other Apollo users who came from Reddit can find this because it's honestly helped to heal the hole left by Apollo.

This has been a big part of it for me. This makes it feel like home. Reminds me of getting a new iPhone where it is just a tweak of the same formula.
