Speaking of 3rd party apps, here's a list of all lemmy apps currently in development: https://lemmy.world/post/465785

For iOS, I'm testing Liftoff, Memmy, and Thunder. For Android, I'm testing Jerboa. What's everyone's favorite app so far?

I hope so but it seems the irony of my comment was lost to most readers until my edit.

@Hank It's just a nice thing in text based communication in general, as there are no tone or body cues to indicate sarcasm.

The /s should remain a thing of the past. It’s embarrassing.
