I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.
What will make me return to reading Reddit is all those old posts and comments on very specific topics. It doesn’t mean I’ll stop using Lemmy (especially if some communities I follow migrate here entirely), but there’s no proper replacement for Reddit yet.
Also, I’ve found no app for Lemmy working on Android 7. For Reddit, I’m using Stealth: it’s incredibly useful that you can create multiple pseudo-accounts with different subscription lists and saved posts without ever logging in or having an account. API changes are a sad development, but Stealth has an option to work by scraping
old.reddit.com- unless they happen to delete it, of course.Is Jerboa not Android 7 compatible?
Serious question: how come you’re on Android 7?
I don’t remember the details, but my manufacturer removed some manufacturer-specific OS feature I was using in the Android 8 OTA. After figuring it out, I’ve decided I’m not upgrading. And here we are. The OTA is no longer available; and I still wouldn’t agree to it anyway.
What OS feature is that?
Plus the OS is quite out of date. I’m guessing you aren’t getting security updates? And your phone is slow?
