...how many of you will stay? Personally, I wiped my Reddit history and deleted my account, so I'm definitely here to stay. I can see, however, that a number of people see Lemmy more as a distraction until the blackout is over. I wonder what that number would be.

I would really like to stay here, but I mostly used reddit on my phone and I've found the mobile experience so underwhelming that I have already given up on it. The MLem app crashes on me after ~60 seconds every time I try to use it, too.

If we could entice the developer of Apollo or RIF or Sync or any of the big platforms to make a really slick app for Lemmy, I might never go back to Reddit.

I'm a mobile user as well, I found that (on Android anyway) click the show desktop option in my browser has greatly improved my experience here, all 2 days of it.

Try the Jerboa app! I haven't had any problems with it at all (the Mlem app is for ios). You can use the direct link to the Google Play store (in green below app description) off the lemmy app page linked below. It's official and everything. I like it much better than the browser version. 😁

I second this, it is really nice to be fair.
