Was part of the great Digg migration, and yet again another platform got greedy…

I’m the same, GenMay and SA before that lol

What was the Something Awful exodus about (and about when if you recall)? Please and thank you.

Oh gosh I remember that being a thing but I have no details around why or when. Commenting to find this later in case you get more info!

I’m going to build my own Reddit, with blackjack and hookers!

Aww! It’s Lemmy.world so I’m already signed up.

Rest in peace RIF. I was honestly heartbroken. I know how sad that must sound, but goddamn, I used it daily for 6 years. It made my office hours and daily commute on the subway so much better.

Yeah man I used RIF as my only reddit access for 12 years. So when reddit was going hard with avatars, rewards and ads, I was immune to it. I think that’s partially why 3rd parties were cut out. I did the revanced reddit app, but it still feels gross.

I’ve been full-time on a Lemmy for nearly a month already and haven’t really missed the other place at all. But damn, seeing that goodbye message on RIF yesterday filled me with emotions that were weird and deeply confusing.

What Apps are people using? Wefwef?

Running Connect for Lemmy here on Android. It seems nice and minimalist. I was a little dissuaded from trying Jerboa with some of the negative reviews.

Fiddling with a few settings in Connect has given me a close enough experience to RIF which is great.

Currently trying out Liftoff on android. Quite liking it so far while I await Boost to be released.

I like the chrome PWA, jerboa, and wefwef. Thunder is decent. Liftoff looks great but doesn’t allow for all instances to join yet ( kmown bug). Haven’t liked connect as much but trying to give them all a fair try. What I am really looking forward to is Sync.

Connect for Lemmy is the closest thing I’ve found to RIF.

I made it in! Excited for something new after 10 years on Reddit

New Lemming here.

Here’s to hoping she’s built like a steakhouse, and handles like a bistro!

I am here now. Just signed up. Mod of /r/bicycling, /r/sanfrancisco, and a few other smaller subs. The whole thing is a mess right now, so I wanted to see if there are greener pastures here. Any tips are welcome. I literally have no idea what I’m doing.

Thanks for the work you did on the SF sub; I got the sense it could be a handful on occasion. Nice to recognize some of the cool ex-redditors here. I modded /r/chaosmagick and a half-dozen other tiny subs. It’s pleasant to get away from the flustercuck spez has turned reddit into.

I think we are still figuring out sophisticated mod tools, but the community is nice, the admins are awesome, and everyone seems to be pretty much on the same page about an open and cooperative internet.

lemmy.world/c/bayarea is sort of active. I hope this site doesn’t fade out of popularity similar to the migration to voat back in the day. I do think the federation of lemmy will prevent a repeat of what’s currently going on with reddit ruining itself and 3rd party apps. Still learning how to use this site myself.

It’s pretty chill here. I’m using wefwef.app to browse. It’s great.

I love wefwef! It’s been incredible!

If you’re on an iPhone I’ve been using wefwef and liking it.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I used Apollo since 2018 and I was disappointed with how reddit treated Christian.
