This perfectly explains the demise of BlackBerry phones too.

I’m all about the air hockey table.

Connect is much like Sync. In fact, I uninstalled Sync and went back to Connect.

No, I meant the instance itself. The server. The one who runs lemmy.ca is here in Canada with me.

It’s like when playing a game; You choose servers closet to you for the lowest ping time.

The other reason I neglected to mention was I like to support local. 😎

Agreed. I went with lemmy.ca since I’m Canadian and the instance is in my country.

I also heard Lemmy should perform a little quicker for me too this way.

They all appear to be in development, but yes.

They have over a billion monthly users, so I’m not sure they’re dead. Unless you were being sarcastic.

But… You reminded me I’ve been wanting to look into using PixelFed.

He said it’s his only source of income, so he’s probably been busy trying to gain as much time as he could from Reddit while simultaneously trying to work out his finances and such.

Connect for Lemmy has you covered. If you’re on Android.

Yeah, the novelty of it will fizzle out. Some will call it their new home. Others will go back to Twitter or other. Some will check back in periodically.

I’ve had a Galaxy Note 10+ for 3 years and I’ve now had an S23 Ultra since around February. Not once have I had random apps installed.

I’m with Rogers Wireless in Canada.

There are 1 billion active users on Instagram and those users were invited to Threads using an existing account. Celebrities, businesses, streamers, etc. all popped up on Threads within the first few hours of public release.

I’m a big nerd and just learned about the fediverse within recent months. Everyone else I know who uses Twitter and Threads have no clue what Mastodon is.

This just makes too much sense.

Just keeping you in your toes.

I’ve been using WeTransfer. They hold the files for a week, but it’s only 2GB max if I recall. I’ll have to check out Wormhole now. Thanks for the FYI!

I’m loving Connect for Lemmy right now, but certainly curious to see how this turns out! Sync was my go-to app for Reddit.

I had to zoom in on my phone just to be able to read that!

You know… It’s seeing this type of stuff I’m so happy I found my wife the old fashioned way before dating apps existed.
