Jerboa reminds me of RIF, which I've used for many years. But I think important software should be open source, so this is a good improvement. Even if RIF were to switch to Lemmy, I'd stay with Jerboa for this reason.
There are still a few things here and there to remind you it's an alpha, but it's already surprisingly polished and functional. This Community looks like a really good resource too.

Same. This is actually more similar to RIF than I was expecting and I'm having fun with a smaller community.

Good idea. Just did that with Boost. :)

Same. RIP boost, you will be missed. Hope the reddit app developers switch to the Fediverse, that would be sick. o7

Thank you for mentioning Jerboa; installed and quite happy with it so far.

I've been using Jerboa (and Lemmy) for a couple of days. And I like where this is going. Replaced Boost on my screen.

I'll leave mine there for the time being, to remind me of the good times and why I shouldn't go back to reddit.

All good things must come to an end, even if it is sad

rif my most used app by far ever. Jerboa feels very similar so the transition has been easy

I just did the same with Boost. I've been part time both here and on Reddit, nowi it's time to start really leaning into Lemmy.

Moved relay over and put jerboa in its place - couldn't bring myself to fully uninstall yet but I know it's coming

It's so fast. I just love the responsiveness of it.
