The only apps are really care about are the ones that were created before or during the great redded debacle. Anything coming out months later, especially ones that charge money. Yeah no. You weren’t here when this began. You’re just coming in after everything’s already been cleaned up. No I’m not saying that people shouldn’t develop apps. They can do that if they want but there’s really no reason to switch when something is already working and it’s been working fine for months.
I think you don’t have in mind that it takes time to develop an app. Some people do it in only their free time so it takes even longer. I think some apps started being developed during the reddit blackouts.
Shortly after that
What’s with the big and blue username?
Been a happy Boost for Lemmy user for 2 months now, before that was using Jerboa.
Did they have any grapes?
Bahm bahm bah bah bah bahm
And he waddled awayyyy, waddle waddle waddle
Lemmy really needs something like topics, categories or tags you can opt-in or -out of. There are just too many communities to subscribe one by one and if I browse everything theres so much super boring niche stuff, like some Go library releasing version 0.02-beta. I mean that’s nice for those 5 Go programmers waiting for that, i guess, but they are probably subscribed to it anyway.
I am new here and I do not understand how to find the stuff I want to see. So far I blocked a lot of porn, though.
I browse an All > New to find communities I like. There’s not really so much content that it’s overwhelming, unlike if you did that with a huge site like reddit.
Even that is better than the massive waves of posts in languages I don’t understand.
I suffer from that in Mastodon because I follow hashtags, but in Lemmy? No way, all I see is English in Everything.
Also I have more than 800 subscribed communities so I have a better understandable feed.
I’ve stuck with sorting by “local” and that seems to work for me. At least on Connect for Lemmy
Theres more apps than users. I mean I’m grateful for the apps tho
I hope at some point more people start contributing to the core lemmy codebase as well. I don’t suppose there’s that many rust devs out there, but I think that would have much more of an impact in the long run.
I’m pretty sure Lemmy is like 95% software devs
I must be the 5%
Devs, yes, but I think very few of us program in rust :)
Your loss =D
lol, can’t disagree
Mhm, agreed. Way too many apps, not enough PRs to main codebase.
And the users too.
Sounds like Lemmy:Piss tbh.
I heard about one called Raccoon being made and now I am waiting for that to have a download all for the name alone. I’d like to keep with Liftoff but the dev had a kid not too long ago and that was the last we’ve heard from him. Unless something changes soon, 0.19 Lemmy is gonna break Liftoff :(
