I was in the middle of switching over to Lemmy. Honestly I’m really enjoying it so far.
I tried to use the official reddit app and it was horrible. So I’m trying out Lemmy. The look and feel on Lemmy mobile app (Jerboa) is so similar to Reddit is Fun.
To get push notification, something needs to ping the server now and then in order to check if there’s any update to push you. This is why Apollo ultra had a cost to it. I’d imagine eventually the self hosted version of wefwef can get push… public instance not so sure.
I was shot down mid-scroll. Brutal.
Holy crap… That is brutal.

I’m using wefwef.app and so far it’s like 90% of the way to an Apollo clone. Now we just need more users, communities, and content.
Tell all your friends! Wait, we’re all redditors. Shit…
Want to know what’s worse? According to The Verge, /u/iamthatis told them it was Reddit who pulled the plug earlier than planned.

(Lemmy gif test, take #1)
ETA so far wefwef.app feels like a great Apollo clone. No push notifications on iOS (yet?) but I added it to my Home Screen and it’s great.

Oh. Ohhhhhhhh. That makes sense.
