I figure some people can recommend apps for your phone and others can recommend excellent appetizers. We can meet in the middle.

It's incredible how productive I've been with everything being broken today

I'm now your friend too. Sorry.

Yeah, the absence of a slew of editorialized content, obviously being pushed by larger groups, is kinda nice. Like I think I've interacted with more people on here in the past 24 than I would in a week over there

Don't forget the free ice cream when you signed up this week.

...you guys did get the free ice cream, right? It was on the sign up page and everything?

Bonjour, pips!

For now, I've landed on Community for Lemmy until something else comes along, it can get me a good condensed list view similar to the style I had with RIF

I can't speak for Apollo but I used RIF and old.Reddit

I work with a bunch of techies with various opinions on this; he said I like "an app that looks like it was from 10 years ago", which was meant to be an insult, but I think is actually the point: it was text-first, list view, "get out of your way" to enjoy the content.

I don't like advertising pretending to be content.

I don't like the integrations that pushed paid crap like their version of Bitcoin.

And I am here because even though Reddit is still active, it's clear that the ship is being sailed solely by momentum at this point and the company is, well, only going up be able to do so much until they can't pay what little staff they have. The way the mods and app developers were treated this month was the lowest of the low and sealed my decision.

Actually, I'm here for it. Something was missing, and it was petty bs that I can downvote.

I'm in the same boat, but coming from RIF. Tried to use Mastodon before but wasn't huge on the interface. I'm pleasantly surprised so far, I'm using Connect for Lemmy with reverse list view and it's ...not terribly dissimilar.

That said, it's obviously still new, and slow. I'm going to see where this goes.
