I am using one of the top iPhone apps, that is openly being feverishly upgraded, and wow do I still miss Apollo.
Lemmy is OK, just not a lot of niche subs yet. If there were more people active here it would be fine.

I think just like most people's experiences. It does what I need it to. We just need people and participation.
Iโm loving it but Iโm worried about what will happen when an instance goes down and knocks out a significant community.
I'm waiting to see when things go back to normal in a sense of just regular content and not reddit migration stuff, so far it's not much different, let's see how it goes.
For an "early adopter" it is amazing so far. I see a lot of potential, more-so with Lemmy than other federated platforms. I thought I would just use Lemmy on mobile to replace Reddit since I refuse to download their app. Instead, it unintentionally replaced Reddit almost entirely for me. Just missing some small niche communities that I can't find anywhere but reddit
6 of my most lurked subreddits have no equivalent over here. I have no hope as they are niche and it will take a lot of momentum for them to migrate over here
