    I had been using Openvibe for a while and switched for Flare a month or so ago? I’m not a heavy user, but I like it better than Openvibe. No issues.

    Didn’t know about it. Using OpenVibe now, which is generally happy with, but I might try flare.

    EDIT: Okay, I’ve set it up and browsed around a bit now.

    • Everything takes up too much space, in my opinion. I have to scroll much more per post in the feed, compared to OpenVibe. Also, posts in the feed have a margin in the sides, but there’s an extra margin outside that as well for some reason, which means only ~85% of my screen width is really being used for post content, which is a waste of space.
    • Parent posts (that a person I’m following has replied to) come before the reply, in the feed, which trips me up when I’m used to them being nested like they were on Twitter. Just a personal preference, though.
    • I can’t find the “For You” Bluesky feed anywhere either.

      I don’t use For You, so I don’t miss it. I guess. But I do agree on the other points. There is way too much padding on the sides. And while I think it makes some logical sense, the parent post thing confuses the shit out of me because it seems opposite the way every other app handles it.
