EDIT: check out this link for a list of lemmy apps: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
People say the real migration will happen on July 1st, but people can't move if they don't know where the apps are going.
Link people to Sync for Lemmy and Liftoff for Lemmy (already usable) on Android
and Memmy for Lemmy (already usable) for those on iOS.
Connect for Lemmy is in the Play store and not bad.
I doubt many people will move. Most people will just start using the official app or move to another website. Lemmy doesn't have much content (yet), and that's yet worse than not having a good app. They will just quick look and go back, if even.
At this point content is definitely needed more than users. I really to stick with lemmy but the content just isn't here... Like you said (yet)
Those Reddit echo bots are really starting to annoy me now too.
I'm still hopeful though, I don't want to go back to Reddit
I rarely posted content on reddit, but I engaged a lot.
I realized that once I got here, I needed to post content if I wanted to encourage others to do the same.
We need both content and engagement. Engagement drives the content, it's a feedback loop.
Thunder and Summit are also pretty good suggestions for Android.
I would link people to https://lemmy.world/post/465785
I'm currently using Jerboa on android. Anything stand out that Thunder or Summit do better that's worth me taking a look at?
Thanks for the link. I've added it to the post as well.
That's nice, thanks
