Discovering the #fediverse gives me the same feelings #linux did years ago. The endless choice, excitement of discovery, clash of philosophies and a community.

I spent years #distrohopping from #ubuntu , #arch , #voidlinux , #nixos etc and then back to arch. Also spent a long time switching desktop environments and window managers like i3.

I started on #lemmy and #mastodon . What do I try next? #selfhost an #activitypub server? Which one?

There are many apps for Lemmy (also from the official devs), it just doesn't have one that is named 'Lemmy'.

From what I've heard from other users (I don't use any apps myself), it's generally the case that the so-called ‘third-party apps’ are usually much better than the official ones.

Of course, it only makes sense to show the logos with the real names for such a stock photo.

Question: do I update my #Fediverse stock photo with this screenshot (it has the shortcut to #Friendica too)?

A reminder that this stock photo is for articles about the Fediverse, so it’s the most vanilla, KISS (Keep It Simple) version imaginable for people not familiar with the Fediverse. My *real* Fediverse folder has Ivory, Mona, Phanpy, Surf and Voyager.

Let me know your thoughts!

@iviyohane

the developer account is quite active (@apps) , but I see the F-Droid version has not been updated in 11 months, and neither is the repo active since then

Since I @-ed them, maybe they'll tell us if there are any new updates in the pipeline (what about support for #Lemmy for instance?)

From what I understand, #reddit just did some new stupid things, and people are looking for alternatives and are finding #lemmy .

So, then it might be good to point people to
lemmyverse.net/ , which is a great resource to find Lemmy Instances and Communities (lemmy speak for subreddits).

Have fun.

Also, there are multiple Lemmy clients for your phone. Sync for Lemmy is a great one for Android.
