It definitely was a rough start. Mastodon was already a bit more mature and the app ecosystem was way more vibrant. However I discovered the wefwef PWA and since it’s almost an Apollo clone it feels like home.
I’m using the beta of Memmy for Lemmy (ios). It hasn’t been released yet, but it’s already stable, even though there’s work to do for what concern the UI and some features.
I appreciate it because being new to Lemmy, it makes things a but more approachable.
emmer is even better
