First post. Majorly a lurker on reddit, and now that I’ve switched to Lemmy, most likely will continue to stay a lurker.

I know I can download and try all the apps to see what the difference is but I’m curious as to how many people just use their web browser or mobile browser?

Since I’m new, I have no interest to figure out what apps would work for me as all my time is used to figuring out Lemmy, and absorbing the contents.

Would it be a better experience to use any app to learn how to use and navigate Lemmy? The idea of using multiple apps at the same time to find what I like more seems overwhelming.

    You’re not missing anything by not using apps, as other people said, many people came here because reddit apps stopped working and they’re looking for replacements.

    I never used apps on reddit, old.reddit on desktop was by far the best experience for me, I don’t intend to use apps on lemmy either.

      desktop browser is the best! if you wanna write a quality comment that links to sources and quotes people, there’s just nothing better. I couldn’t imagine writing anything useful on some app on a touch screen. and even when I zombiescroll on the toilet, the mobile browser did fine with old.reddit. and no extra software clogging up my devices, that’s a massive benefit for me.
