Or Cromite, a fork of Bromite that’s kept up to date and has more features.

It doesnt no

This works most of the time, but not all of the time. Even in official apple apps some menus don’t let you swipe from the left to go back.

I use gesture navigation on Android. It has some upsides and downsides compared to iOS, but it works 100% of the time, no exceptions.

I would hate such a change. I can’t see emoji reactions ever being better than seeing a single number for vote count.

Reddit did kinda have their own emoji reactions, but they locked them behind a paywall, and called them awards. I don’t think anyone liked them, even if it wasn’t for the money. They cluttered the UI, they were annoying, even Reddit didn’t like them, since they’re removing them now.

Now imagine that but instead of a few people who paid Reddit for some reason, everyone can do it, for free. Thousands of emoji reactions per post.

Emoji reactions work for chat platforms since only a few people see each chat, but after a few hundred people see the post it becomes meaningless emoji spam (see discord announcement channels)

Not really, if you browse the big communities it has enough users but for more niche communities its not neatly nearly enough to be a replacement for reddit

I know they said they’ll federate with ActivityPub, but did they say they will allow you to move accounts to other instances? That seems extremely unlikely to happen
