I’ve never seen this on the web, Jerboa, or Boost.

The only thing that bugs me is most communities didn’t move from reddit […]

Be the change you want to see in the world. Try to start one of those communities over here. Don’t be disappointed when it doesn’t get traction within a few days. There are some places to advertise new communities here.

Why the sad smiley? You’re doing great work and it’s early access. I’m celebrating accessing lemmy via Boost 🥳

Fun fact about the official reddit app: It used to be a 3rd party app and was quite good back then. Reddit bought it instead of developing a new one from the ground up, and then made it successively but constantly worse. So the comparison should be slightly different. Mayo is creating a new good app faster than reddit can destroy a once good app.

Different thing. Look for the pinned post and the link in there. Once you’re registered for early access, you’ll find an entry for Boost for Lemmy in the playstore that’s explicitly labeled as early access.

Yah, I know. That’s what I wrote in the post.

Funny, I did the same for almost the same reasoning.

You have to sign up for the early access. There’s a link in a pinned post in the boost for lemmy community.

I was wondering about this when somebody mentioned it in the other thread, so I hope you don’t mind me asking here, why would you still have the Reddit application still installed?

Because the official app sucks.

It doesn’t work since the API was shut down, and there’s no other reason to keep it installed.

That’s not entirely true. It still works if you’re a moderator of at least one sub.

If you simply remove it, there won’t be any confusion around the icons any more :-D

Then I’d have no bearable way to access reddit, though. Which I rarely do anymore, but still.

I think it only works if you are a community moderator.
