& I’m doing pretty good! The wefwef app has done a great job of recreating the Apollo experience and has made it a lot easier to not want to go and download the Reddit app. The more active it gets here, the easier it’ll be. How are you guys doing so far? Have you found an App for Lemmy that you prefer the most yet?
With the usage increase of app like Discord the contraction of social media will be the norm in the following years. Instead of having a single instance that hosts everything, we’ll have a smaller but higher quality of communities. My social circle has encountered something similar; I deleted my social media accounts but kept a Discord server where I hang out with my friends. Quality over quantity is the name of the game now.
I like this idea, but I find Discord’s UI hostile to new users. Any good alternatives?
Matrix. I’ve been using the element app.
Thanks, I’ll check it out
Same here. The only social I have been on since 2014 was reddit. I was on reddit earlier, but that’s when I dropped Facebook. I never used Twitter or Instagram or Snapchat or whatever.
Social media has some good qualities but it’s still young and we haven’t figured out how to safely regulate it. Maybe this federation thing is the way
Until discord shits the bed. I’ve been enjoying matrix, it’s a bit more like IRC.
Tbh I was kind of weirded out when everyone decided just to accept our chatrooms would now belong to one company.
