Boost for Reddit is finally down. Can't wait for Boost for Lemmy to launch. So far I've enjoyed my time here. Thanks for keeping it going everyone.

Can you explain what Boost for X is for the uninitiated?

So long, king.

Is Liftoff a Boost clone? That's what I've been mostly using so far, and it's not bad.

Liftoff is a fork of Lemmur, one of the two oldest Lemmy apps (next to Jerboa). Lemmur was archived some time ago and is now unmaintained. Liftoff was now created as a new fork and updated to the current Lemmy version.

Ah, I see. Well kudos to Liftoff/Lemmur then. I've found this app to be the most solid of all the apps I've tried so far. I think I might've tried every option available on android except for wefwef. Still haven't gotten around to trying that one.

I think Jerboa is a better one because the UI looks more like Boost. But Boost for Lemmy is already being produced so no worries.

Came here to check, it's not working on my end either.

Time to cope and looking forward to boost for Lemmy

End of an era, gonna miss boost till it's on Lemmy now

[โ€“] silentletter@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yup. Finally uninstalled.

It still works as it always did for me

Sigh. I dunno what's going on in the Internet lately, but it's a pretty seismic shift across the board.

I had Boost for my mod account back on Reddit. Good to know it's coming over to the light side.

I used boost for reddit and I'm very excited to see it coming to Lemmy!
