I run a few groups, like @[email protected], mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.

Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.

Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.

All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!

Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.

    @agreenbhm Why it it worse to have multiple communities for the same topic spread across multiple instances vs having multiple communities for the same topic spread across multiple subreddits?

    Seems like better redundancy and if they’re all in the same app speaking the same protocols then similar functionally.

    Even if there was only one subreddit why would it be better to have one instead of a long tail of many?
