You’d be surprised how fast Mlem is coming along.

But for now just open the home page of your instance in Safari, hit “share” then “add to Home Screen” works okay

I don’t think we need the police comparison…

Some moderation is necessary, but if things get out of hand your instance will just be defederated. So it is more self regulating than you suggest.

Welcome! It’s a bit rough around the edges here but the devs are making changes every day and the community is better than I thought.

Well that seals it. I’m here for good. I’ll even commit now that if Lemmy doesn’t work out, still not going back.

Yeah, because I’m a nerd and already have a personal server :P

(and like making things needlessly complicated apparently)

I’m not really browsing reddit anymore. Just checking in on a few niche communities once in a while. The community on the fediverse is much better than I had anticipated.
