Exactly what gatob said. Lemmy is the platform that all instances (Lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, etc) connect to.

All apps work with all instances. There’s jerboa, connect, wefwef (soon renamed to voyager thank god), liftoff, with more coming soon (boost & sync of reddit fame)

While true, it sounds like communities from instances that un-federate should be avoided. More users are on other instances so the beehaw ones should be left to die in obscurity

You can just search for something like Android and it’ll show all the communities including the instance it’s on and join; you don’t need multiple logins.

The app I use, wefwef, also can view all communities in the feed along with your subscribed or just local instance communities. I’d assume liftoff is similar but I’ve never used it.

You only need to sign up for one instance. What app are you using or is it the browser?

Thats what I’m thinking as well, as long as the battery is decent.

Agreed, my choice until boost or sync launch most likely

Try wefwef (name sucks). It’s a progressive web app so version shouldnt matter.

Try wefwef (the name sucks, idk why they picked it)

https://wefwef.app/

It’s a web app that’s really clean looking and smooth. Wish they would add a top (day/week/month) sort though for postings

They’re making a Lemmy version so don’t feel too bad

Well it’s coming to Lemmy which I’m excited about

Plus you can’t see nsfw content which a lot of non-porn content still gets marked as

And sync!

Yeah works the same on Android

I started using wefwef (terrible name though) and it’s my favorite ui wise by far. It’s a progressive web app so you can save it to the homescreen and it performs even better

On the bright side, he’s making sync for lemmy now

And you can see it (in America anyways) in the employment situation. “Screw unions, they protect terrible employees and you can’t get rewarded for being a top employee”. Always thinking about themselves, screw everyone else I want mine.

I don’t think merging subs is necessary, I would like to see a user based grouping function. That way you can add duplicate communities to one group and see them all while maintaining the benefits of decentralization (primarily redundancy whether through server issues or power hungry mods). Plus it would allow you to group any type of communites you see fit (gaming for multiple gaming subs, sports for multiple teams you follow, etc) without forcing it onto others

Same just wish there’s a way to jump to a person’s reply when viewing the reply in the messages area

A possible better solution might be to allow the user to create their own group (or super community if you prefer that name) where they can group multiple communities together in a way they see fit (not just necessarily clones of the same community. Examples could be a sports group that allows you to group together communities for all the teams you follow).

This would be beneficial I feel for most users, doesn’t affect decentralization, doesn’t require a central authority and would be only relevant to each individual user and not applied to anyone else

Same here, decent enough start for the app so far
