A few weeks ago Lemmy was buggy on computers and there were no good mobile clients out there, now on PC the site is pretty stable and fast, and there are now some pretty good iOS/Android clients too. Thanks to all the people who made this possible!

As someone who has been here for quite some time before the reddit exodus, it is crazy how much this place has improved in such a short time. I used to check lemmy once or maybe twice a day and then I’d go back to reddit. Now with all the new people posting here, lemmy has replaced reddit for me
I joined too early and stopped looking as there was so little content. In fact, when Lemmy started becoming well-known, I forgot I even had an account and made a new one elsewhere. Luckily, my password manager has a better memory!
Now if only my upvotes would go through. Hopefully the patch that was applied to lemmy.world yesterday addresses that. Their instance seems much more stable and responsive now.
I think the whole Fediverse is struggling with Reddit and Twitter sending a lot of new users their way.
It’s struggling less than my RiF app though.
Yup, I joined in 2021 too and it was a ghost town. Just seeing hundreds of comments on posts is a shock.
Yeah, nearly three years ago when I first saw Lemmy I found the idea so cool but I didn’t expect people not interested in fun rust projects to actually come here. And here we are now with an active platform with a wide variety of users !
I’ve actually noticed a lot less content on my Reddit frontpage. Granted I don’t subscribe to any of the most popular r/all subs, but the tech and niche interest subreddits were the only reason I ever went to Reddit in the first place.
I genuinely can’t bear to use the Reddit iOS app for more than like five minutes so I tend to just skim and close the app. I wonder if a lot of other Apollo/3PA users are feeling the same way and it’s caused a drop in engagement as a result.
