I used the official app, but i decided to quit because of all the API debacle.

So now i use Jerboa for Lemmy.

Yeah, same here. Th API changes had 0 effect on me, but corporate money grabs that involve restricted access and screwing the community is a big no no for me.

I used the web browser and really loved Reddit, but the way they screwed everyone over was too much to put up with. So glad I found out about Lemmy before I left!

And the same for me as well. I used the official app, and had no issues with it personally. I lurked for the most part but chimed in on subs about some of my favorite shows and questions regarding programming.

Once the shitshow hit the fan, I was already planning my exit from Instagram (hardest one, lots of IRL friends over the years), and had joined mastodon. I actually signed up for lemmy and mastodon about a year prior to the migration, but at the time it was pretty dead. Now, while not as lovely as their corporate counterparts, each has a vibrant enough community that I'm not missing either.
