I came here after GenZedong was quarantined for not blindly following western war propaganda.

Hoping other new users will learn to re-open their minds after being boxed into Reddit/western liberalism for so long. (Won’t hold my breath but I do hope)

To sail the high seas, following the path of all those who plunder the vast ocean.

The twitter diaspora instantly led me to the fediverse all

The thing that gets the cats killed.

The API changes will threaten boost which is the platform I used to access the app and have done for years, this was the trigger. But my general desire to get off the platform was what pushed me to make the switch. Reddit has become increasingly difficult to enjoy for anything other than a meme site. Which I didn’t really mind but the people made it hard to want to post anything of substance. I also discovered Lemmy as an active ish community and I like the structure of the fediverse. Overall I saw Lemmy as a good alternative with a strong enough user base. I hope that we don’t get seen as outsiders when we inevitably crash servers with the numbers that will be arriving soon.

Used Apollo for Reddit, not possible anymore and the official app truly suck.

Not only that, the CEO is trash. So trying out Lemmy and thus far, loving it. Hoping it will keep growing and better than Reddit.

The decline of reddit.
