I can’t get into calling subs “magazines”. Communities is much better.
Just call them "clips." /s Seriously though, the aesthetic of Kbin is its best feature, but the concept behind the threads seems. I dunno. Weird. Lemmy feels janky and basic, like old Reddit. 💗
Coming off years of old.reddit.com, Lemmy felt like major bloat :) I'm used to it now though, definitely nothing compared to regular Reddit.
And, yeah, the jank is 💗
Just a heads up, https://old.Lemmy.world now exists! (It should feel much better!)
Also, if you used Apollo for Reddit, Voyager (https://vger.app) exists for Lemmy and it feels right at home!
There's also a Voyager frontend hosted on lemmy.world:
m.lemmy.world
Old Lemmy is the best thing I've seen in a while. I found it last week, and it's absolutely cured my Reddit cravings.
Also for Apollo users, the Memmy app is very close!
There is also Arctic by CreatureSurvive being worked on which looks promising. I just want my Apollo experience again. 😭
Also for Apollo users… wefwef. I added the web app to my Home Screen and it feels like nothings changed.
Wefwef and Voyager are the same app, they renamed it.
Oh yeh! And now you mention it, I remember that naming conversation. Well now I feel silly.
