      Basically nothing of unique value really comes from Reddit the company. Their platform is easily replicable (as you can see from the MANY Reddit clones other than Lemmy) and their staff are glorified powermods and repost bots. The only thing Reddit has of value is its communities, and those got where they are despite Reddit’s best efforts.

        Narh nothing specific just general navigation between different instances and communities and then how to filter the content so I don’t comment on a 2 year old post which was the first post in my feed which may or may not have already happened…

          You want to sort by “Active” or “Hot” to see newer posts. Or something like “Top of the Day/Week”. If you want, you can change what your feed defaults to in your settings at the top. (This also applies to Lemmy apps.) You can also change the default filter type on your feed to “Subscribed” if you want it to be like Reddit, where by default it just shows you communities you’re subscribed to across all instances.

          As for navigation, yeah it’s a hot mess rn. I feel like when someone posts a link that goes to a different Lemmy instance than the one you’re currently using, there needs to be a button or something attached to it to open that link inside your current instance, instead of taking you away to one you aren’t logged into. But I’m willing to bet that apps like Jerboa or Liftoff will solve this soon if Lemmy doesn’t do it first.

      Yeah it’s pretty great, at least for such a new product. Do you know of any official memmy discussion/support community? I have some feedback for the devs (mostly accessibility stuff).

        I’m thinking of making my own app (iOS only, I don’t know android development).

        Haven’t searched for official Memmy community.

    Interestingly, infinity still works. I didn’t update as they asked me to, and it’s still fully functional.

    Reddit lost me though.
