I guess I truly have no reason to visit Reddit now.
After Reddit crushed Apollo I was super pissed, because Apollo in my opinion was the best. I scrambled for alternatives (before I learned about Lemmy) I noticed my Alien Blue and Narwhal still functions, minus porn. Eventually I stumbled on Lemmy and I see so much potential with this place. I could still (for now) comfortably consume Reddit content and be happy but spez is such a fuck he’ll eventually block access to those two, so I decided I’m out.
I’m very glad I found this place, Lemmy and the Voyager app. I think I’m pretty good about finding places before they get big. I joined MySpace in 2004, Facebook in 2006, Twitter in 2008, Reddit in 2010. Now 13 years later I’m on Lemmy, and I truly think this (the federation) is the next big thing. Fingers crossed.
Sorry about the old man yelling at the clouds rant.
I mean, I don't even mind if it's not the "next biggest thing". I just want it to be a solid community with a good mix of growth and quality.
If you liked Apollo, like me, it’s highly possible that you will also enjoy voyager. It’s basically a web UI for Lemmy, heavenly inspirier by Apollo. Here is the link to the GitHub: https://github.com/aeharding/voyager
And here to see the WebUI instance live in action: https://vger.app/
Edit: nevermind, i didn’t read your comment detailed enough, because you already mentioned it
Never did.
That's objectively not true. Reddit had a pretty good thing going for quite a while. It wasn't always like this.
