When Reddit Closes a Door, Lemmy Opens a Window.....
Welcome new members! Please take a second to read the rules located in the community sidebar.
We are doing our best to appeal the Reddit ban. In the meantime, we thought it might be nice to have a new safe space to snark and have made lemmy.ca our new home.
Please bear with us while we figure the new site out and please let any former TBP Reddit users know we are here!
You're viewing a single thread.
I feel like an old person trying to work out this place but I’m here and dedicated. Let’s go 👊
There are a few small differences between Reddit and Lemmy, but you'll find a lot of excited people here that are happy to help clarify things. Welcome :)
Hey,
I just posted another thread to help people with mobile apps and alternative interfaces, I mentioned your very useful community !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca :)
Thank you!
Me too! It’s not as user friendly! I feel like it’s harder to follow conversations 🤷♀️
For any mobile Lemmy users there are all sorts of flavours to try (keep in mind there are a handful that have gone out of development).
The same is true for webusers there is a lot of choice over the default. For reddit veterans hopping in, may I recommend mlmym (https://old.lemmy.ca) to help you ease into things. The Alexandrite frontend (https://alex.lemmy.ca) in "Cards" mode mimics newreddit somewhat, minus all the reddit ads and bullshit.
@Cheesecake@lemmy.ca I hope this may help you too.
Thanks!! Yes! The joy of no ads is unparalleled. The ads on Reddit are redundant and there’s one for some eyelid mite. Ew. you can’t hide it and it was grossing me out. Every. Damn. Day. Lol
Hey,
FYI, I added link to mobile and UIs in this thread: https://lemmy.ca/post/22652027
Which issues are you facing? Interface should be similar to Reddit, are you on mobile or desktop?
I just downloaded the Avelon app and agree it’s similar to Reddit.
Same!
Same same but we got this hahah
