I’m sure that’s what he means. I scroll with “New/All” and this is a fantastic way to read new stuff you have never heard about BUT the caveat is: this is an enjoyable scroll ONLY after you’ve developed a good block list of users, instances and communities. Otherwise, you’ll get inundated with the few but very vocal and toxic communities that make Lemmy feel like a clone of Reddit/Twitter/etc.

When you say ‘everything section’ do you mean the ‘all’ section or a specific community? Sorry if there’s an obvious answer, I just joined a few days ago & I’m still learning my way around

Ok cool, I figured but never hurts to double-check. I agree, the posts from some of those groups are insane, but it’s fine once you block them

I’m using Sync (I’m lazy with getting new apps and it hasn’t pissed me off yet) and the button is called “Everything”. So I guess it’s the All section!

I love Sync but be aware that it is no longer being actively developed. It has some bugs that will never be fixed, and might break entirely in the future.

I’ve been using “Thunder” and so far it’s done a pretty wonderful job of things. Very easy to view and scroll on a phone. A lot of options you can set and customize.

Thunder was still not quite what I was looking for last time I tried it. I am very happy with Summit now, personally.

Has the developer confirmed he’s dropped the project for good, or is he still just MIA? I know he’s gone over a year between updates before, so unless he’s announced that he’s done, there’s still a small possibility of an update in the future.

This is longer than he’s ever been MIA for before, this time I think it’s about 2 years since the last update, and there are several literally critical bugs. But this is the downside with absentee developers like that, you never know for sure whether it’s abandonware or not. But he seems to be actively working on other stuff still so I just don’t think Lemmy took off enough in popularity for him to feel like it’s worth his time monetarily. Makes sense if this was always more of a business than a passion project, which is the way it appears to be to me.

I’m using photon in my mobile browser, but the ‘everything’ tab as well. Still learning but it’s not too steep of a curve. Feels very organic & I love the lack of ads
