Lemmy and Mastodon feel like the real web3. (lemmy.world)

I think this decentralization and federation is what web3 is all about, without all the corporations calling everything to do with monkey pixel art that costs a million dollars "web3"

I finally dipped my toes in and having a blast.

Just need to get Sync/Apollo/etc .. aka the BOYS to come and make some mobile apps and we're SET :)

Is Jerboa on Android the only application currently?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

AFAIK yes, but until Spez conveniently ruined his site, Lemmy had like 2% of the user base it just gained. Jerboa is even made by the Lemmy developers IIRC. So now that the usage has spiked, I’m sure there are other developers thinking about it. Hell, I’m considering building an iOS app myself!

Yeah I think so. It's not too bad tbh, but would love to see this ecosystem flourish.

This is why I'm hoping people stay even after the blackout. Lemmy has potential but a big part of it is the community. I already like it here and I've seen it grow despite being here for only a week. It's honestly amazing to watch.

I'm definitely here to stay. Reddit is now reportedly working on blocking the site on mobile browsers. It's not a stretch to assume they'll kill old.reddit, too, to maximise profits.

if old reddit dies the platform dies

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I saw that. That's honestly stupid, imo. I mean, they can still track you and force feed you ads. Sure you can have an adblocker but that's the same for mobile.

Idk why they'd do that, tbh.
