I was using my phone to access Reddit through an app called RIF. It stopped working.

I can access Lemmy on my phone through an app called Boost. When I revisit a thread, it displays the new comments in a different color. Very very very convenient for active threads.

I used Boost for Reddit, and now Boost for Lemmy.

It's incredible how much the app is part of the experience. Same experience, completely different data source, it mostly just feels like early Reddit again, with niche subs of mere hundreds of people.

People are on average nicer here. Few loud nutjobs but overall I have mostly pleasant discussions.

Am the same, Boost fan. I still lurk too much, but really enjoy the conversations.

Okay, back to lurking for me, run out of things to say.
