None of those, I just heard about this on r/degoogle and came over.
Old reddit for me was the last straw. time to move on. if we don’t make a stand and move elsewhere, the status quo remains.
Just a reminder the fediverse isnt only lemmy 🫤
_|X|X X|X|X X|_|_You don’t have one for “Longtime lurker who used reddit for their daily dose of catching-up-with-the-world but found that the r/all was increasingly showing reality tv discussion subs that they had no interest in”.
It’s been three years so I can’t remember, but does reddit not have a way to block certain subs from r/all (at a user level)?
A key part of shaping your lemmy experience is that you can just block any community you aren’t interested in, while still getting the benefits of an All feed.
Yeah, they finally just killed r/all completely, which is why I’m here. I fucking hate how reddit became this corporate cesspool. It used to be just a regular cesspool with some content I liked.
I was banned for goading the Whitehouse Reddit into nuclear War with Iran so we could all stop seeing press conferences of Caroline Levitt.
I score like, 6 of these.
Where’s the, “I hate everything proprietary, and regularly check for foss alternatives option”?
Too many unironically racist and sexist people in reddit.
There was one exchange I recently had with an obvious Israeli.
Guy just kept saying didn’t understand and such any time I asked why European colonizers had any right to middle eastern land, without involving an imaginary sky man.
Then he/she shut up when I asked about the cultural genocide and infant stealing inflicted on the Mizrahi Jews, and the involuntary birth control given to Ethiopian Jews.
Fascism is an ever shrinking circle.
Yeah it’s almost impossible to convince people on the Internet of anything, nevertheless to get them to see things from other people’s perspectives.
The worst part is if arguing against genocide won’t change someone’s mind there, then nothing would. People are so into their own little bubbles nowadays, that they’ve forgotten how to change their opinions based on new facts presented to them and just say they were wrong. It really sucks.
Everytime I want to prove a good point, I end up deleting the reply and think “what’s the point? They won’t listen to me and will just go back and forth with me without budging even a little bit”.
Lemmy isn’t perfect or anything, but it’s not even close to how fucked up Reddit comments can be. Which is crazy because Reddit is usually pretty strict nowadays (at least it was a few years ago before I left with the API changes)
The API change and the general tone they took towards the community when they implemented it.
I say hateful things to normies for the luls
Top row, left column for me. I’ve actually been around since the third party app ban, but lost my first two accounts: VLemmy -> lemm.ee -> lemmy.zip
Also switched over during the API drama, but I think only my first account (kbin.social) is lost. I did stop by lemmy.world for a bit, and think I also tried piefed.
Same, but just lemm.ee to lemmy.zip.
Long live Apollo.
So say we all!
I used Apollo, got the lifetime membership, about 6 or 8 months later it gets shut down
Got banned from Vancouver subreddit for calling those antivaxxer flag-waving idiots, “flaggots”.
Then got permabanned for trying to evade the ban (using alt account). Every account I tried to make since gets banned.
All my round-about ways to use a third party app and just lurk also stopped working recently.
I still dont think calling those crazy fringers and convoy antivaxxers, “flaggots” is not that big a deal. I’m not insulting gay people, I love my homios!
My favorite mod @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website moved here but also fuck spez.
