I wish I could say I had principles, but frankly I'm just here out of a combination of spite and the fact that I genuinely hate the official Reddit app too much to ever use it.

spite is a powerful motivator

Even Reddit degenerates have redeeming qualities!

I'll admit that I still go on reddit for my custom multi-subreddits. I try to use lemmy as much as I can but until they implement some sort of custom-multi community function I can't entirely switch over. Lemmy is simply too fragmented between instances. Lemmy would benefit tremendously if we could group communities into custom multi-threads instead of having to visit each community on several instances. I do keep mobile browsing to liftoff for lemmy though.

Is there some sort of official feedback channel for things such as this?

[–] Cube6392 1 points 2 years ago

!lemmy@lemmy.ml and their GitHub repo. There's already an issue for a feature request to have multi-communities

[–] yippy@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I'm sure it's a feature that's already been suggested so it's only a matter of time. I know I already suggested it on my instance feedback thread.

What's happening on Reddit now? Anyone know? I haven't been back there for weeks at this point. I'm quite enjoying Lemmy as a replacement thus far, though it will take a while for it to replicate what was Reddit.

I'm quite enjoying that it doesn't replicate Reddit

It's pretty awful, honestly. I was disappointed that so many communities seem to be active, but the majority of large subs are still closed. It seems like 90% of the front page material now is stuff like AITAH and Whitepeopletwitter (basically lowest common denominator trash). Anything of substance is basically gone. Which makes me happy, honestly.

I check in a couple of times a day to look in my vinyl subs for deals and new releases, but that's the only thing it's good for now.

Ahh, that feeling of moral superiority
