I don’t think this thread was created by one of them — the creator of this thread isn’t listed as a mod over there.
Like @Devgard I was tempted to lock or delete this thread — I feel like it’s a bit of a shitty thing to post — but it’s pretty clear from the upvotes that most people are excited for it. So… Whatever will be, will be!
That, and you still can’t follow hashtags in the official app. Kinda insane really.
Ah damn it, that’s what I was doing wrong. Thanks!
Post needs a major update already 😂
Seems like some habits are going to follow us from reddit. Downvoting at the drop of a hat is such a miserable shitty thing to do, but many seem wedded to it.
Great news. I’m probably more likely to use Sync, but seeing not one but two well regarded Android Reddit apps migrate to Lemmy is just bloody awesome.
Good catch, thanks!
Go for it!
I do wonder though if we’d be better off with a series of threads devoted to particular app types… A thread for task/project management apps, a thread for notes apps, etc.

Well yeah, but that’s the difference between volunteering and being on a big salary. Hopefully the influx of new users will lead to more code input though, and more donations.
How would he make money?
Haha, how ironic. I downloaded the old Lemmur from F-Droid today, having no idea it had been abandoned. When I couldn’t add lemmy.world, I knew something was up.
It’s a good looking app, so good on your resurrecting it!
As for a name… Given it’s a resurrected app, how about Zommur? 😁
Haha, well sure they are, but requiring the correct case when @mentioning someone isn’t very user-friendly — and it’s certainly rare to the point of more likely being a bug.
Really? Wow! How do you find it?
Can’t believe the @ mention function is case sensitive 😂
Exactly.
Each to their own indeed!
Alas no, I prefer Mac. That’s why I was focused on a Web interface, haha.
Ah that sucks. I admit I’ve never noticed as I use dark mode permanently!
Motorola MA1 for me, works every time without fail. I’m a motoring journalist so I’m in new cars all the time, and the MA1 provides an identical connection speed and stability to what I experience on those cars with wireless AA already equipped.
I’m pretty glad to have both options. I take your point about using it while charging, but I also find myself having to jump up from my desk quite a bit, and it’s nice to be able to just pick up my phone without first unplugging it. And I imagine all of that plugging and unplugging is reducing the durability of the port over time.
Thanks Jeff, I appreciate the candour and respectful response here. I confess I was initially miffed that somebody would promote a ‘competing’ c here, but I quickly realised I’m not interested in rivalries here. Life’s busy enough as it is!
I think we’re doing pretty well here, but the idea of an instance dedicated to tech is appealing. Happy to chat about it. I’m @mikestevens on Telegram.
