Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Just thought I'd point this out to anyone looking for an RIF alternative that's actually in the same vein as RIF (compact, simple, clean).
Boost was a Reddit app until today. They just added a preview to the Play Store for their Lemmy app with no fanfare.
I came from Apollo, and wefwef.app has made the transition much much easier. Now let’s grow these communities!
I’m so grateful you posted this comment! As a fellow refugee from Reddit that used only Apollo since the very beginning, wefwef is truly a blessing!
Wouldn’t have found out about it so soon if not for you!
Looks good! I've been using Jerboa on list view and finding it pretty close to my old experience on rif.
Jerboa was based on Boost, so the Boost for Lemmy app should be really popular.
Now trying out Connect for Lemmy. Seems to work fine with a few customization tweaks. Looks very similar to RIF.
What tweaks are you applying?
Mainly the layout as a list instead of cards one in the settings. Also, don't need the navigation bar all the time.
Thanks for that, I'll be applying those tweaks on Connect myself. boost looks cool, I've bounce from Jerboa to Wefwef and now to Connect, I think I'll hang out here for awhile unless I hear raving reviews about Boost
Connect has surpassed jerboa for me at the moment.
Wefwef is still incomplete, there's no block user or community (for when something gets spammy)
I also just hopped from Jerboa to Connect. I like the look and feel of Connect more. I'm coming from BaconReader and this is the closest experience to that I've found so far.
Wow, this looks exactly like RIF.
Personally I'm making the move to open source as long as I'm moving from Reddit to Lemmy anyway, so I won't be using Boost although I used RIF for like a decade, but I'm glad that the app ecosystem is growing so fast and that there's something for everybody.
