They really did. I could have swore I saw r/blind officially migrate to Lemmy or Kbin a week or two weeks ago as well.
For Facebook being Facebook, I can’t help but think how will they screw up “Threads.” Instagram has become a junk platform and WhatsApp has declined as well. Meta or Facebook will try to monetize Threads or ActivityPub with their own take. I can’t believe anything decent let alone good will come from this.
It’s going to take some time or you can create the community. July 1st just arrived. So people are still trying to figure out what to do about Reddit. Not everyone was going to migrate to Lemmy July 1st when 3PA shut down. It’ll happen over time. In the meantime we can all do our part and contribute to the different communities now and create content so more people will want to join.
It’s like huffman and musk are sharing ways to screw over users and their platforms. I get a company needs to make money but personally, I don’t think this is the way.
This is crazy. I want to see if it actually blocks you from reading tweets. The article didn’t say when this goes into effect though.
Facebook and Instagram have been doing this for years. It was only a matter of time before Twitter started it.
Mlem and Memmy are in the works for iOS as well and these apps seem promising. So much better than using Lemmy in a mobile browser.
Facebook and Instagram already do this. It was only a matter of time for Twitter.
In one of his interviews he said he wasn’t very interested at the moment. But he did say he will watch Lemmy and the fediverse to see the growth of it and decide later on if it’s worth it to build an app for Lemmy. He isn’t sure if Lemmy will actually grow after July 1st but time will tell.
Hello. Welcome
I just installed Mlem and Memmy. Both have a very nice UI and are smooth. I am leaning towards Mlem though. I like swiping right to view my communities.
Edit: I was an Apollo user and reddit does not feel the same without Apollo.
Twitter has started paying Google.
