That’s where I’m at. Discord isn’t the issue for me, it’s them not using their own platform to communicate major announcements. At that point it’s like you’ve given up on your own platform.

That’s a popular enough opinion that it’s being worked on and should be coming soon.
Man, imagine how useful that would actually be though? You’d save a lot of money and headache a few months down the line…
I personally used Connect for a long time (currently trialing Sync) and honestly it’s a fine client for Lemmy. The really nice thing is that there are so many apps, you can start a Hunger Games out of them and narrow down to the one you like the most. That’s how I got to Connect after starting with all of the maintained Android apps a month ago.
Sorry, connecting might be a bad way to explaining it. You can access communities on other Lemmy instances (as long as they’re federated together, which they probably are).
They’re separate but you can connect to communities across instances. I would recommend posting to !newcommunities@lemmy.world to give it some attention so others are aware it exists.
Also a fellow ex-Bacon Reader user, same deal. So far I’m using Connect for Lemmy to try to get a similar feel, what app are you using?
I believe there’s also a !teachers@lemmy.blahaj.zone which was posted earlier.
I’ve got a mini and am looking into getting another mini or a full size. Caper sounds like a fantastic name considering how sneaky my current one is.
