A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Redditors, how do you like Lemmy? (beehaw.org)

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.

Looks neat, but I need a ELI5 on the instances/Fediverse/how it works in general (Looking at YT videos right now).
Also I miss the "hide all child comments" I had on reddit (or was is RES?).
Oh, and I'm open to android app suggestions :) I'm using "Now for Reddit" for reddit.

I'm using Jerboa on Android and I can click a comment to hide all children under it. On lemmy.ml on the website I can also hide children by clicking the little minus next to the username.

I just saw your comment appear without me having to refresh the page! Nice :D
I'll check the app, thanks.
I'm guessing you hide children comments PER answer, I'm looking to hide them all automatically, but keep the possibility to expand them if needed
