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’d like to be able to hide the story summaries on community pages, so you just see the topic. Reddit was super compact that way, which I really preferred. This was constantly abused too, of course…

      What frontend are you using? it’s already like that for me on jerboa if you choose list view, instead of cards

      On beehaw.org I don’t see the summaries either!

        I think it suddenly is…maybe I changed a setting and didn’t notice. The sidebar takes up a bit of room. A two line headline gobbles up 5 lines total. When I expand stories usually I’m just confronted with an expanded thumbnail, kinda pointless. Minor feature requests.
