Right now the user count Lemmys is comparatively tiny when held up against reddit - but the user count isn't the thing that makes a social media site, it's the engagement

So even if you're used to lurking, try to get a little more active! Post memes, vote on posts, talk in the comments, whatever!

If people come here and see activity, content, and discussions, they're more likely to stay and contribute their own - if they come and see a ghost town, they'll just go back to reddit

I couldn’t agree more!

In effort to try to add value to posting, I found a mobile app for iPhone. It’s clearly in beta. I’m not associated with them at all, and I hope they don’t mind me posting the results of my Brave search.

Replying from the Mlem app!

Solid app so far, can’t wait to see future updates.

I’ve installed it a few hours ago and I gotta say that it’s nicer that I had expected! Clearly it’s still a work in progress but it has potential

I really wish I could edit my profile from Mlem, I hope that’s coming up on their roadmap!

Hey just to let you guys know that app (Mlem) is currently looking for volunteers. If you guys want to contribute join the community using this link (https://lemmy.ml/c/mlemapp) and go on the top post to get yourself onboarded with the team!

on android there's jerboa. it's pretty good, but clearly a work in progress (as lemmy itself is) - there are quirks that are just different between the two platforms.

but bonus, if you are on android and afraid of google, you can get jerboa from f-droid. not that i would know anyone like that
