Comment on Advertising Lemmy on r/place
tpyo@lemmy.world 1 year agoI found voyager (previously wefwef) pretty easily and quickly adopted that while I wait for sync to be released
Here’s a fun post asking lemmy users about their technical background. It’s quite a varied mix but it seems to trend on the pretty layman end of the spectrum lemmy.world/post/1868094
Lemmy gave me my reddit fix when I left when the first blackouts started, using my 3rd party app only every couple days to check protest subs until the app died
I think with development of lemmy apps, and the fact kbin is officially working on an API (kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/p/903221) it will only become more accessible. When I first heard of lemmy, of course I search the play store and there was hardly anything. I’ve been using voyager for 10 versions and it’s improving leaps and bounds. A lot of seasoned reddit devs are working on a lemmy app now and that’s nothing but fantastic news. Some even stated future kbin support

To be fair, that post specifically asks people who don’t have a technical background. It can be used to show that laymen have the capacity to use a federated platform like lemmy, but not that they are a significant portion of the userbase (albeit that post does have a lot of replies).
