1 year agoI use this with grapheneOS and it provides a great amount of customizability that I want. I’ve had no problems with the app at all the the past year I’ve been using it. I keep all the apps that require Google to function locked away and only use them when I absolutely need them. I no longer worry about apps constantly doing god knows what with my data while I go about my daily life.
Lemmy does seem to have enough content and user engagement for my needs. I’ve noticed engagement going up the past month but wasn’t sure I was making that up in my head.
I really haven’t felt the need to go back to reddit much. But the niche communities could use a lot more users posting and creating new content.
