Well i am certainly not using reddit on my tablet anymore.
Honestly Reddit doesn’t infuriate me anymore. I haven’t been on reddit for 2 weeks now and I no longer feel the urge to check that site. I expect I’ll still end up there occasionally when I search for stuff, but gone are the days when I spend an hour or two every night on reddit.
Great news.
I only ever used Reddit in Firefox on desktop anyway - but now I use it a whole lot less (maybe just one reply per day trolling people with interesting posts they’d be better posting here).
Lemmy is a shit-show… but it’s OUR shit-show and we’ll adjust, and clever people will develop.
MY shit-show ya commie bastard. NEXT.
Can we please stop with all the posts about reddit? Jesus christ you guys it’s a website, not your crazy ex. Lemmy is never going to surpass reddit in popularity when the only thing on the frontpage besides beans is “reddit this, reddit that”.
Honestly, I’m really trying to like Lemmy. I feel like none of the good communities came over here, just the one’s you mindlessly scroll through. I just looked for a fitness community yesterday and the one i found had like 5 posts. There is basically no communities for any of my hobbies. It seems like most people stayed on Reddit, except for the techy people. It’s a shame because I really want to support the idea of federation and I do like the website.
it’s only been like a week, people will come
If you build it they will come.
I heard that same advice about The Bunny Bar down the street, and you know what? They were right!
What is that app possibly made of that it cant run on literally anything? It’s just an app for text and images. I dont get it, is it optimized like an actual potato?
Could be a library or feature that the devs didn’t consider worth maintaining on older devices.
For context, the OP appears to be using Android 5 or 5.1, released in 2014/2015 respectively and is used on 1.1-1.3% devices worldwide.
What a stupid anti-human shit, I hate it. All my devices from 10 years ago are still perfectly fine and operational, and I can’t use them because of some people’s laziness. They are used on 1% devices not because they are necessarily bad or broken but because it’s impossible to use them now for arbitrary reasons.
Well, true. But it is more reasonable to hate the manufacturer who refused to update, not the app devs who would have to do more work for small gain. Or unofficially update your own device, if possible.
I’m not hating on the developers, I’m hating on the whole situation
