I honestly do not mind it one but. I quite like the interface. It’s minimal but there are some bugs to it which is to be expected. I really do like the overall design of it though. There isn’t too much going on. It’s like old Reddit which I am a big fan of

It’s ok. Navigating takes some getting used to and the lower content and engagement so far is a bummer. Hopefully it will take off though. A mobile app at some point would be nice.

I'm pretty impressed and have adopted quickly. Anyone sitting on the fence needs to dive and pro actively comment.

It's not the time to lurk. The user base will grow when people fully engage.

But I have nothing to say

If on android, there's Jerboa for an app. Kbin is working on an app iirc. It's all open source too, so if it really picks up there will probably be a few others that pop up eventually.

KBin is also a PWA so pretty "app-like" already.

[–] Otakeb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't get kbin to "install" on my phone as a pwa. When I click "add to home screen" I just get a blurry icon and the navbar at the top of the page is still there. Am I missing something? Lemmys app and higher user count is what got me to settle on it instead of kbin but if I could get the pwa working I might give kbin a fairer shot.

That's really odd! It sounds like you're doing things right. You might try another browser? PWAs live in the mobile browser so sometimes that can help.

[–] Otakeb@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I appreciate the suggestion, but I thought the same thing and tried switching from Firefox to Chrome and got the same problem. Even updated both browsers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
