    Funny to think back in the day WatchPeopleDie, jailbait and fiftyfifty was all the rage. Now Nintento charachters are banned

      Man… I even remember being on watchpeopledie and that sub scarred me for life, to think we now get banned for upvoting sentences containing Luigi is insane… Reddit has changed so much, can’t even be mad at nazi’s cause they’re afraid it’ll hurt Elon’s little feelings…

    I’ll make the mandatory “Hi, I came here from Reddit” post that I’m guessing is mandatory on lemmy for threads dunking on the site? Might as well be my first post in the fediverse too to get that out of the way. Wish I had known about lemmy sooner tbh but better late than never.

    Also if someone has the spare time for it, I’d love to get pointed towards whatever’s commonly used for onboarding here. If there stuff I should be aware of and tools I should look into, what phone apps people use, that sorta stuff. I picked my host because I wanted something european but I’m now kinda eyeing the old layout option that world seems to have since I used to use the old layout on reddit too.

    EDIT: Wow, thank you for all the recommendations. Definitely gotta take a look at all the various apps that people are using to find one that works for me!

      I use Voyager for Lemmy on Android (it looks like Reddit-is-Fun), but unlike Reddit, Lemmy has no API restrictions, so you can use whatever you want, to get the design/layout that works for you best.

      Enjoy your time here and take it easy!

      You came at the right time. When I left during the API nightmare and removal of third party apps, Lemmy was like walking into a desert wasteland and praying it loaded up and you weren’t just standing there in the void.

      When it did load, where sand should be in the wasteland, it was beans. Slimy, canned beans as far as the eye could see.

      You’ve entered during the golden age if you ask me. I don’t even think about Reddit anymore.

      I’m a big fan of Sync app. It was formerly a Reddit app. It doesn’t get much updates but it’s fully functional for my needs.

          And better dev support. I don’t think the guy that’s been running sync has done anything in like a year. Just copy/pasted the UX from reddit sync into lemmy sync.
