We are really happy that you are here and participating! Cheers, my friend!
To quote ljdawson, the dev of Sync for reddit: “Apart from crashes I don’t track shit.”
He was asked how many API calls Sync’s users have on average. He simply couldn’t answer. That’s why we loved 3rd party apps.
Yepp, it works surprisingly well. I assume one of the similar communities will eventually “win” on one of the instances, like with similar subreddits over time. Also some instances will go full specific, like nature or movies or gaming etc. See the growth of lemmynsfw already, lol.
I’m really liking it a lot. I wasn’t too amused by Mastodon either, but as you say: for link aggregation, for specific communities, for discussing topics (and not being about people, but about topics) this is a perfect match.
No, I’ve changed it.
My reddit name became known to a couple of my friends during the 10 years I was there and I want the total anonymity again.
And I see both of your replies on lemmy, in the Jerboa app. What a time to be alive!
