Done with Reddit’s bullshit, and happy to check this out as it seems to be popular. Any apps that people would recommend for this platform?
Hey! I noticed your title doesn’t match the question in your body text. Could you maybe change that?
Lemmy has completely solved my need for news content when bored. I no longer use Reddit.
What are your top news communities here. It sounds pathetic, but I got to nearly 99% of my news from Reddit.
Tap communities in the header and filter by “all”
That will show you all of the most popular communities across Lemmy.world, and other sites sharing their content with Lemmy.world
i suggest browsing communities with https://lemmyverse.net , https://sub.rehab and https://browse.feddit.de/
whatever will work for you the bestThere are a lot of the same type of communities as reddit, a symptom of so many of us coming over. I looked through my subscribed subs and just searched for fediverse alternatives, they were pretty much all easy to find
It’s not here, but you can watch the pbs newshour on YouTube for free, or you can stream the audio over your phone (I use spotify, but I’m sure it’s on other platforms too).
Browse lemmy for entertainment, watch the news for information
Yo, anyone happens to know how to make Infinity For Everything work with Lemmy? Like, I know I need to point it to lemmy (dunno if website or API) but I don’t know how
Any user or community just has to be prepended with
lemmy:, for example hitGo to Userand enterlemmy:efraimbartto view my profile. To view any community or user not on the default instance you can append@<instance>to it, for examplelemmy:efraimbart.world.
I switched from Jerboa to Connect, Connect has been doing well for me so far, I like it.
Ribbit
Jerboa and Liftoff.
As a former Boost for Reddit user I’ve been digging Jerboa. Definitely going to check out Boost for Lemmy once it’s available too.
Voyager, formally Wefwef, is fantastic. It’s like if Apollo and RiF had a baby that’s slowly growing into a fully functional contributing member of society with a mortgage a 2.5 kids.
I second Voyager. I tried Memmy and found it hard to wrangle. I wasn’t sure I’d like a Web app on my home screen but I was mistaken. It’s seamless and feels just like a native app. It’s the perfect transition for Apollo users (RIP).
Tip: try sorting by hot instead of active. Gets better results imho. Also Top 6 hours.
Sort by New. There’s all sorts of weird stuff popping up like mushrooms after the rain.
Hot show me the hottest 4 yeard old posts. Top day and less is the best.
Mlem is an incredibly nice app for IOS users, it reminds me of Apollo so I feel right at home!
Mlem beta test is full right now unfortunately
I’d recommend voyager first it’s what I’ve been mostly using and since I started there’s been almost daily updates adding more and more quality of life features and stuff people are requesting. It’s been pretty incredible to see! There’s also a neat feature that can take your list of subreddits from a reddit account and help you find their equivalents throughout lemmy. Liftoff and Thunder are 2 other good ones I’ve been playing around with. And best of all, no fuckin ads haha

I tried to use that feature but it looks like reddit has broken two factor auth on their website. I literally can no longer login through a web browser like the tools instructions say to do.
