The experience that I love isn’t Reddit but the one that I get with Boost. Lemmy is growing and there are some subs I miss from Reddit but the number is constantly decreasing.

Yeah honestly wasn’t compulsively opening lemmy like I used to with Reddit until the familiar boost logo and interface appeared. Now it’s been back to sit on the toilet and immediately open up boost. It’s a great app but I feel like I need to not use it lol.

There’s not much else you can do on the toilet.

Seconded, and very appreciative that Boost was ported over.

Until the drama on Reddit started I had never heard of Lemmy, but I knew reddit was becoming increasingly hostile towards its users and the content more and more bot reposts instead of new ones.

Lemmy seems to have kept a lot of the things I used to enjoy about reddit, but for now is smaller and more personal interactions on posts and within communities. It reminds me a lot of the old phpbb/vbulletin days when communities were smaller and more tight knit than Facebook/Twitter/Reddit ever were.

Same but sync! Crazy the difference a good app can make! I have boost installed but I’m already diehard for my own app, so don’t really use it 😅

You just made my week. I have missed the UI of Boost for so long and didn’t know it existed for lemmy until just now.
