I remember when I use to get excited to sign into Reddit on Sync or Boost and scroll for hours responding and commenting with my fellow dorks geeks nerds weirdos and the like and then it was taken from us. I say us because we built that monster up just for it to let us down and stab us in the back. I am on Lemmy putting my roots down as I join and help grow a new community of dorks geeks nerds weirdos and the like…

    Yep, I’m excited too. Lemmy also has a goal of intentionally avoiding addiction, which I’m down with

      Facts. I’m curious to see how they implement such a thing. Either way, I’m all for it. How’s Lemmy and everything been for you? I think I’m getting the hang of it a bit.

        It’s been pretty seamless for me. I put the Connect for Lemmy icon in place of RIF, so habitually open it instead. I’m considering contributing to Jeboa now (i do android dev), it’s not a very good app but a lot of people are using it… kind of a bad first experience.

          That would be dope. I tried Connect but the icon was ugly on my Samsung when you put the dynamic color icons on lol. That’s literally the only reason I’m using Jerboa.
