Lemmy not pulling in Reddit's general audience and Lemmy having a better user experience than Reddit are highly correlated.
My Reddit usage is highly correlated with whether or not I'm at my desk.
I feel like I need to wash my hands after opening the official Reddit app on my phone.
I recommend Stealth for Android. You can subscribe to subreddits and get nsfw access, and all this without an account. Only con for people might be not being able to sign it, but I don't see not being able to comment or interact as a con with the benefit being less account based information being collected.
Are you on Android? I use boost for reddit, as well as boost for lemmy... Its a great app. To use it for reddit just create a random sub and become a mod. Any name just create a sub, then it will let you log into boost... Full access and a great user experience...
Ohh is that why boost still works? I should reinstall it.
Boost will only work if you're a mod... There is a guide to use ReVanced to make it work but it's buggy... Just create a sub and become a mod and you should be good to go. Even NSFW works if you're interested.... Definately download it
Someone should put together some lists of instances to block for new users. Only English for example. Lemmy seems like opposite reddit, you block communities not subscribe to them. It's taken me months to block enough that my feed has mostly things I care to look at. My blocked list is miles long, I think I've subscribed to 50 but I never browse it, it's so slow moving.
