+1, I feel much more inclined to contribute to the community in lemmy vs. reddit. And its awesome to see so much growth in the past few days (and I'm sure we're about to see it explode in the next week)

if you're on Android there is an app for Lemmy called Jerboa which is working well for me (and also just released a new update with a ton of additions/fixes!). You can use the app to connect to any lemmy instance.

Loving the app experience so far - sure it's a bit barebones/rough around the edges but has all the core functionality and a great reddit alternative.

Given that every instance pretty much has a copy of the whole fediverse on its own, isn't that incredibly inefficient? I can imagine as the fediverse grows the amount of storage required for each instance becomes too huge, maybe resulting in each instance needing to focus solely on certain groups of topics? Storing all that data can't be cheap nor environmentally friendly.

Decentralized is the future of the internet

Lurkers (me) are leaving too, hopefully en masse.

This is great. I've only known of the existence of the fediverse for half a day but I already can see this is the future.

if there can be a coordinated migration to the fediverse during blackout, that'd be the dream.

+1 been a Sync user for probably over 10 years... It's been an app I've opened near daily since then too, I'll miss it.

Am I indirectly supporting lemmy devs by being on lemmy.world? I'd rather not be supporting tankies.

What's the difference between the multiple lemmy instances and something else also ActivityPub based like kbin? Is lemmy.ml vs lemmy.world the same as comparing lemmy.world with kbin.social? I have accounts with both Lemmy and Kbin and confused a bit by what I'm seeing, and also Threads vs Magazines vs Microblogs haha. So much to learn about the fediverse!
