    Is there a way beside Sync to tag people? It’s the feature I miss most in any other client, and the main reason I keep using that instead of an open source alternative.

          the experience is a little different, since, instead of seeing articles with a comment count, I see comments and articles in reverse chronological order all together on one timeline. essentially, the Lemmy community “boosts” every comment and article, and I subscribe to the community.

          it’s a great way to find conversations happening RIGHT NOW but it is not a very good way to see which threads are popular/up voted

          as far as I can tell, direct messages and user reports are flat-out broken between the services, so you’ll want to maintain a Lemmy account anyway for those uses.

          if you can get over all that, you might like it. it’s twitter-like.

            I think I’ll keep both and see which I enjoy best. Thank you for your explanation, it was appreciated.
