I run a few groups, like @[email protected], 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 have a solid feeling that your lag and timeouts are due to the influx of users signing up to the Lemmy-verse…it will likely get better soon.
No doubt
It will and has. For example, lemmy.ml and lemmy.world have already upgraded their hardware tremendously. Am sure others have and will do the same.
For me it has already become much smoother.
