That were first two days here, but now I'm invested, people started to share more and suddenly i catch myself scrolling Lemmy for 15 minutes instead of working
Amen. Half the battle is actually contributing/replying for engagement metrics, so here I am :)
I wish I could find an enjoyable experience, but it’s tough to use Lemmy the way I want on iOS. I’m sticking with it though and hoping tooling catches up soon.
Try Mlem! It's still in Testflight (beta version for iOS), but you can create testflight account and download it for free. It will also help creators of the app find bugs and whatnot! I'm using it rn and it's nice, they're very passionate about it! if not mlem you can also open Lemmy on safari and then make webapp by tapping share icon and then choosing "add to home screen". It will create bookmark on home screen that dont have browser interface and it's working really good actually.
I’m currently doing both of those, but neither suit my preferred Reddit workflow.
I want to see fresh posts from across the entire fediverse. I don’t care about things I’m subscribed to.
Safari iOS will auto refresh the “hot” page and it’s unreadable because it’s constantly scrolling as new posts are loaded in.
Mlem doesn’t allow you sort All posts by Hot at all :(
You can change default sorting in Lemmy settings, but i agree that constant refreshing is frustrating :(
Yeah, I don’t even mind manually changing the filters to get what I want. I just literally can’t read while posts are flooding in.
It will get better. Tooling will evolve as users join.
