Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they’ve been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving…

    Personally I came over bc the app I used stopped working (boost). Lemmy seems to have the same content I used reddit for:

    • US politics headlines
    • Memes
    • Niche communities

    I don’t plan on going back to reddit unless it’s via Boost. Fediverse is better anyway

      Poor one out for Boost! I’m on the waiting list for his new boost for Boost for Lemmy. Can’t wait.

        Pour*, but ya. I used sync and I loved it. But I also used the free version of boost. I’d probably go with whichever one came out first 😂

          Sync was the first app that looked nicer AND improved usability for me, after almost a decade of RIF. So I paid for the dev version to support it, and don’t regret it even with what happened.

          I have really enjoyed Jerboa while waiting for Sync, can recommend. It’s on the Play Store and native android (+ open source on GitHub)

      The app will continue to work if you are a moderator of any subreddit… I’ve got a few subreddits that I created myself, with only me in it, and because of that I can still use the app.

      Considering deleting my account however…
