Oh shit, everyone this is big. This is the big one. On reddit, Reddit WAS Sync. It was why I started using reddit in the first place.

Now, Lemmy is Sync. Lets gooo

You'd assume there will be an increase in users once all the former Reddit app developers launch their Lemmy apps.

Hopefully it's the better former Redditors as opposed to the trolls. πŸ˜‚

This exactly why I don’t like it when people complain that not enough redditors moved to Lemmy. I actually prefer that most of them don’t.

Really hope the Rif dev creates something for Lemmy, last I heard he was going to develop for another social network

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I was sad when I heard they were only making something for Tildes. RiF was my go-to but maybe we'll get lucky and they'll make stuff for Lemmy and Kbin too!

Funnily enough the RIF dev just released his new Tildes app a little bit earlier today, called Three Cheers for Tildes.

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I downloaded the app. Is tildes just like Lemmy and Reddit?

[–] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sort of, but the site's philosophy is rather different, shitposting and memeing is heavily discouraged and there's no user created communities for instance. You also need an invite to register an account and post, you can still lurk without one though. If you're curious you can check their docs, it explains it all in detail.

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for the info. I had never heard of this site before. I will keep the 'Three Cheers for Tildes' app installed on my phone and check it out.

Why do they need an invite though? And where do I get one?

[–] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why do they need an invite though?

I think it's mostly to avoid trolls and keep the website manageable for now. The owner seems to want to keep a more "cozy" community.

And where do I get one?

Gotta ask someone with an invite basically. They were handing out invites on r/tildes awhile back, so it's worth checking there occasionally if you're still on Reddit.

... And I could DM you an invite if you'd like, just make sure to read the rules and behave.

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Thanks for the info! I've been lurking on tildes for the last two days through the Three Cheers app. Things seen very minimal and interesting. The app is very solid too.

I've also read their rules. They're pretty straight forward.

Can I get an invite from you to sign up? Other method seems to be to ask the site admins for an invite.

[–] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Sure. DM'd you an invite, have fun!
