I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, 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.

    I am nicely surprised over all about the number of comments, it look promising.

    As it is, I will make the definitive switch when Rif die. I am not a power user of Reddit or a mod.

    Something I think is very important for a succesfull migration en masse is the presence of porn.

    It’s here (even some niche fetish I enjoy ) and there is already enough content for me not to go back.

    Also the atmosphere is very friendly , I don’t know the friendlyness of Reddit in its early days but I bet it was kind of similar, I love it here.

    Sure some content is missing but it will come.
