      TBF, Jerboa’s not even in alpha yet. You can’t even click links in it without crashing. But while I was using Lemmy I did find Jerboa user-friendly and have high hopes from it.

      I’ve now made the swap to Kbin today and have also found the UI pretty simple to navigate (though sadly I’m not aware of any apps for it). As soon as we get some smart, tech-savvy people co-creating on apps we will be in great shape. (RIP RiF)
