Speaking of 3rd party apps, here’s a list of all lemmy apps currently in development: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
For iOS, I’m testing Liftoff, Memmy, and Thunder. For Android, I’m testing Jerboa. What’s everyone’s favorite app so far?> The top two instances, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml have a total number of comments of 156331 and 188364.
EDIT: @Elcapitan786@lemmy.world has pointed out that this stat is for total comments by day, not per day. Thanks for the correction.

This
edit: do we really have to copy the ‘/s’ for sarcasm?
No, no we do not.
I hope so but it seems the irony of my comment was lost to most readers until my edit.
Came here to say this.
The /s should remain a thing of the past. It’s embarrassing.
Dawn of the first day. 72 hours remains.
EDIT: Didn’t expect this comment to get this many upvotes. Here’s a song for all you Majora’s Mask fans to enjoy at Time’s End, by the magnificently talented Theophany.
It’s just sad. Like when you separate out the vitriol for spez, the whole situation just sucks. Reddit was my site for over a decade, and I know there are tens of thousands in the same situation as me. I thought I was insulated from this bullshit within Reddit, but clearly I was naive.
Life is change. It’s always good to be reminded of that by the relatively non-important things.
I ultimately still need to use reddit for a few things, mainly a modding group from Skyrim I’m a part of and we use reddit as a sort of hub for our work, so I’m kind of stuck there until the heat death of either reddit or the project.
I do have hope for Lemmy though, but as of July 1st, reddit will lose me as part of their mobile ecosystem because I refuse to utilize that shit app of theirs.
I was also on reddit for more than 10 years, but in that time I have posted less there, than in a few days here.
Change keeps your brain young
Theophany’s work is incredible. Good shout
I’m done with Reddit. I can’t support their behaviour so I’m moving on. I’m currently using Jerboa, and testing Liftoff and Thunder. All three are good, but Liftoff is my preference so far, just waiting for a few issues to be sorted which is happening over time. I’m interested to see what Sync does for Lemmy, as that was my go to Reddit app.
Yes!! I also like liftoff the best for now :)
I’ve chosen to go 100% cut off from Reddit but was a daily Apollo user. I averaged around a couple of hours of use each day with Apollo. Since I left Reddit a couple of weeks ago I tried only using the browser version which has been pretty hard. But now that I found Memmy I’m super happy. A lot of the interactions are similar to Apollo and I feel I can interact a lot better with the fediverse using the app.
Narwhal user and I cut the cord on the day the protests started. I just wanted to pull the band-aid off and move on. I was holding out hope that Reddit would reverse course, but it was pretty clear from their actions since then that that’s not happening. 6/30 was the original date I gave myself to delete posts/comments/accounts, so I’m scorched earth this Friday.
I also originally thought I’d stick things out on Apollo until the 30th, and get last use out of the app, but after the admin interaction with iamthatis where they told him his app was inefficient but also refused to explain how (real “it’s not my job to educate you” hours) and then the spez AMA, I dipped. Edited and deleted my history. Account still exists because it’s a point of contact for some people doing website things, but that will go away once I get those people messaging my email.
I can’t go back to browsing Reddit after seeing how terribly they interacted with iamthatis, and with the community.

Not commenter, but I’m going to barge in - I literally went and touched grass. A week away from social media and reduced computer time. By the time I returned, the Lemmyverse was popping off.

Try wefwef.app
I am in the exact same boat
There seems to be a big difference between browsing /all this morning and from when I first made an account. People seem to be motivated to add content which is making Lemmy punch above its weight at the moment. The Shit per User (SPU) index is pretty high at the moment.
SPU… fuckin’ a that’s a good one. I’m trying to help push up the average the best I can.
Lol, with 19 days in you are actually one of the lemmy grampas . :)
We could only hope for a positive grow cycle: more people > more content > more people
Also more developers
I’m using Mlem on iOS right now, seems pretty solid for the most part. I haven’t tried others yet, but now I will! Thanks!
Edit: follow up- wefwef feels super slick, very Apollo like, has local docker hosting option!
I’m tag-teaming Mlem and Memmy right now. Mlem is buggier and a little less feature-complete, but it feels nicer to use.

I believe mlem has been abandoned. I think I saw a post from the dev.
The original dev has transferred leadership to someone else, but development is still active. A new release came out today, actually.
Shit, good to know. Thank you.
I have tried some iOS Lemmy apps, the most solid one for me is Memmy
EDIT: That link might not work in apps. If that’s the case go here instead: !memmy@lemmy.ml
I’m using the Memmy app, it’s pretty good. I might try Mlem and see what it’s like!
I’ve settled my focus on Memmy with some periodic checks on Mlem. I’m a sucker to try as many new Lemmy apps as I can but Memmy is where I spend my time. The development pace is amazing.
same here, i’m super impressed with how far along memmy has come in such a short time. really excited to see how all of these apps continue to improve but memmy is a clear #1 for me at this point in time
I still use Infinity for reddit from time to time. But these days I spent most of my online time with Jerboa. I had tried the offcial Reddit app and it’s basically unusable on my phone.
I was just using Sync for Reddit when I noticed I can no longer load comments and then a pop up came up that said I was being rate limited by reddit. F this, I’ll no longer visit that site even.

Looks like it has already started. People are reporting limiting errors in apps.
Sync Dev was giving me limit errors today. I reinstalled it and it was working again but I know it’s only a matter of time until the end. I won’t use the official reddit app or website obviously, so I signed up for lemmy today!
This doesn’t appear to be correct, it should be labelled total comments, by day, not per day. You can see the total number of comments on https://the-federation.info/platform/73.
The top two instances, lemmy.world and lemmy.ml have a total number of comments of 156331 and 188364.
Per day comments on lemmy.world averages between 6,000 - 10,000.
I’m using Memmy right now. All the Apollo users should fully migrate when it’s down.
Memmy is almost feature complete. wefwef.app if you don‘t want to install an app or don‘t have a testflight ticket.
Wow that’s crazy! Curious to see what will happen on the 30th.

Started by checking out Mlem. Currently using Liftoff and enjoying the feel so far.
