Too bad we don’t get userids so we could boast about our low-digit uid for extra cred, like back in the Slashdot days (low 5-digit Slashdot user here :p)
Of course, if you wanted a name that was always taken you could just join another federated site. For example, you’re FloridaMan@kbin.social but there could also be a FloridaMan@lemmy.world, etc.
I went from Slide to Apollo. When I heard about the API news, I tried out their official app, and it was just horrible. There were even ads in the comments!
For me it’s simple: no sync, no reddit.
I’m never going to use their app.
Same. Plus not many people here yet so I got a sweet username.

The bragging rights of a 4 or 5 number ICQ user.
Presumably we’ll still have account age, at least.

I’m still learning how this works. Thank you
rif for me. but yeah especially after finding out there was a profit sharing agreement in place that spaz cancelled.
When I read that I was astonished.
He literally threw free money away… for what exactly?
Wait, what? First I’m hearing of that, do you have a link where I could read more?
Yep. The day the Boost app on my phone stops working is the day I cease visiting Reddit entirely. It’s about sending a message.
Yeah, I switched from RedReader to Slide to Infinity, never even considered the official Reddit app, it’s so slow and there’s so much ad there.

Definitely. No Infinity, no Reddit. Lemmy, kbin, others. Reddit can go jump. Exciting times!
Damn, nearly forgot - fuck spez.
