What's to stop a single Lemmy instance from going "this is taking too much time and money to run, I'm shutting this server down"? I guess that can apply to any service, but monetization sometimes prevents that from happening. But in this case it's all volunteer work and running a server takes resources.

What happens to all the users created under that Lemmy instance?

Just migrated from reddit, and I’m really excited to see Lemmy gain popularity and grow! This is about to be my next addiction.

I think registration finally worked this time. Good news, everyone!

It's nice to be wanted.

What Apps are people using? Wefwef?

[–] henfredemars@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Running Connect for Lemmy here on Android. It seems nice and minimalist. I was a little dissuaded from trying Jerboa with some of the negative reviews.

Uninstalled the Sync app today.(RIP) Should be fun getting to know Lemmy.

[–] Denalduh@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm using connect for lemmy temporarily until LJ is able to work his magic. It has a similar sync vibe so far.

First post here!

As a former Apollo user, I’m super impressed by wefwef. Does anyone know what’s in store for its development? I’d love to see a native iOS app.

Me too! I was on reddit for about 15 years, passed through some stories there. I hope we have a lot of cool safes to open here. At the end, We should´ve come before. This is the model of internet we should encourage, but reddit was too confortable for anything else. Now is the time! The funny thing is that I neve spent money on reddit, but I already signed up for donations here.

[–] Scorpiona@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

a new reddit refugees sounds like dream.

As my first post here, I feel welcomed with the highest geek honor!

[–] Briz@vlemmy.net 9 points 1 year ago

Hello everyone! Thank you to everyone working to keep servers running during this influx of signups and all the helpful posts I'm seeing around explaining instances and generally how to Lemmy.

[–] CookieOfFortune@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Moved from Digg to Reddit 14 years ago. Happy to do the move again.

[–] TrippyHippyDan@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Happy to try it though I haven't found a cell app I much like yet.

I think the biggest challenge is going to be transplanting the knowledge. There are so many tutorials and walkthroughs that are on reddit.

It's why what was working best was the Mods making everything private.

[–] Twofacetony@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wefwef is working well for me on iPad. I was used to using Apollo to browse reddit, so this has been a godsend. I’m starting to feel more comfortable with using Lemmy a bit more as I’m figuring out what is going on! I hope that the youthfulness of lemmy (to me anyway) is a nice filter from the overwhelmingness of reddit… the downside is that it feels very niche so far, but as adoption becomes more apparent, it will be a budding new “front page” for me.

But if you’re an apollo user, I’d suggest maybe looking at wefwef, and use that to interact with lemmy.

Still trying to figure this Lemmy thing out. I have an account with Lemmy.World, but I can still post/view other instances if they are shared? Anyways now that RiF is gone, guess I'm done with Reddit. Glad to be here!

Time for me to leave reddit and join the fediverse

[–] Epicaricancy@reddthat.com 8 points 1 year ago

10+ year Reddit refugee looking for a new home. Lemmy looks slightly difficult to navigate but hopefully this becomes the new face of the internet

[–] Phallicymbal@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

No more centralised social media. I really hope more of us make the switch. Lemmy feels like it could become a really special place.
