I don’t want to admit how long it took for me to realize this was upside down. But it was too long.

I moved to Lemmy because of the 3PA shutdown but very early the native apps and mobile web experience kinda sucked honestly. But I’m really surprised how much the apps have progressed for Lemmy in a very very short time. The experience is getting very close to Apollo and the communities are growing rapidly. This is also very anecdotal but it does seem there was a bit of a brain drain from Reddit given the quality of comments here and the apparent lack of quality posts and comments there since.

I remember Best. Basically the same as Service Merchandise. Write the item number down, go to a old 3270 terminal (think green screen crt), order the item, and wait for it to come down the conveyor thingy… good times.
