Why does it have to be so hard to find communities? Trying to add this, but it doesn’t show up: lemmy.world/c/boostforlemmy

Should I just leave lemm.ee since it has trouble finding every single community?

champion ,

When browsing communities from other instances you need to modify the link as follows:

https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]

Artaca ,

Such a mess of a URL. I sincerely hope something else comes up to surpass Lemmy/kbin, or that the apps in development hide those kinds of messy bits.

I think the main issue right now is just your unfamiliarity. Once you get used to the the format it makes a lot of sense.

[instance-you-are-on]/c/[community-name]@[instance-it-is-on]

This standardisation has already proven itself for multiple years now, with millions of people using it over on Mastodon. People will get used to it. The “this is unfamiliar and scary to me” reaction goes away as the familiarity develops over time.

Artaca ,

Yeah that does make sense now that you’ve laid it out, but at the same time I couldn’t care less about seeing the instance info once I’m subbed to something. Even showing my profile as being @lemmy.world is just cumbersome, lame looking, and ultimately unnecssary for so many users. Could be a useful sorting tool for sure, but it would be cleaner to have the option to hide them altogether, y’know? I’m excited to see what all of the devs do with this new platform!

HangoverTuesday , to worldnews in France’s protests over a police killing, briefly explained

There is one less criminal on the street. Why is that a bad thing?

@badbrainstorm@lemmy.world avatar

These police departments are given tons of tax payer money to protect and serve the people.

With the level of training and resources available, it shouldn’t be asking too much to expect these criminals to face a fair legal process and an opportunity to be rehabilitated. Not put down like a rabid animal. Shoot them with bear tranquilizer or something. Also, technology is amazing these days. They could surely invest their bloated budgets to find something better than a bullet to bring somebody into custody.

HangoverTuesday ,

To a certain degree though, it was a fuck around and find out moment. The driver was operating a deadly weapon (a car), and the police officers warned him to stop, he didn’t, and got shot. Nobody is to blame here aside from the driver.

HangoverTuesday ,

Sure, agreed. In this case however the criminal was refusing to be detained to be prosecuted, and was clearly willing to do anything to avoid it, trying to flee in his car.

As unfortunate as it was, this outcome is preferable to him crashing and killing an innocent victim while fleeing.

If the app contain adds how good can be?? 😝

greedytacothief ,

Boost for reddit is open source, I assume the lemmy version will also be open source. Also I think it’s like $2 to get rid of ads forever.

IMHO open source developers should be paid for their work, if it must be ads then so be it.

bin_bash ,
@bin_bash@lemmy.world avatar

Well if its opensource anyone can easly get ride of the adds. I agree with you that developers schould be paid but there is many ways to be paid we all fight for privacy and against adds on the internet using adblocks for example i personaly always pay for developers fairemail and typewise to rename few but i dont like to be forced to pay and in between my phone are establishing connections to the adds servers exposing ip addresse connection times and so on adds are not only adds there is a lot of metadata that can be extracted from adds. And finally the purpose of developing opensourse apps is to serve the community with more friendly apps than the big companies offers to us. But… its just me saying that…

First Post on here.

RIP RIF.

So incredibly sad, but hoping lemmy can be something special in its own right.

Using Connect for Lemmy and like what I’ve seen so far.

Hunt3r ,

Former RiF user here. Connect for Lemmy is my favorite so far. I hope to see a LiF in the future.

Tom2day , to android in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

I was a RIF user and would like to see something similar over here. RIF feed is over. Rip.

soycapitan451 ,

On connect. Once I changed my settings it’s very comparable to the RIF setup I had.

impulse , to android in Boost for Lemmy is happening!

Thank you Ruben!

It seems like the future for Lemmy is pretty bright with all these amazing apps switching over.

It’s a shame that Christian decided to not develop Apollo for Lemmy for the time being. I bet that would also convince a fair share of users to abandon ship.

tristan ,

Boost for Reddit was a one off payment to remove all ads and from memory was only a small amount

I’ll be more than happy to pay a small fee for the developers work

NatoBoram ,
@NatoBoram@lemmy.world avatar

I actually paid for all Reddit third-party apps with Google Opinion Rewards at some point because I wanted to find the “best” one. Turns out they all looked terrible or didn’t have moderation features, so I had to settle with Slide.

I’d also be happy to pay for it if it was open source. Having a free version on F-Droid and a paid one on the Play Store for convenience would be awesome.

code_is_speech ,

Yeah… fuck that lol. Why would you ruin pefectly good FOSS by knowingly slapping proprietary adware crap on top of it.

YES!!! Boost is my #1 app for Reddit. Such a beautiful and loved all the features in it.
