I went to Discord and Bluesky. Yeah Bluesky can be political + US centric as heck but thankfully other niches still have major presence… unlike Lemmy and the whole threadiverse.
Comment on we need more users

Can I ask a different, more difficult question?
Where are people going?
Lemmy Isn’t Quite It? Mastodon is too formal. Blusky is too political.
Lemmy was a clone of Reddit. Not an improvement on it.

bluesky has the advantage of being an active leftist contingent, and the disadvantage of being an active leftist contingent

I can totally tolerate Bluesky being too political. But the US-centric attitude there annoys me very much.
No, Threadiverse isn’t much better. I have repeated this criticism of being US-centric countless of times to the point I sound like a broken record.
I’m so done with this whole thing

And I at least was mostly lurking on reddit, as well, only commenting occasionally.

I left, in a way. Lemmy was my main stomping ground. Now it’s XMPP.
how in the name of fuck is that even an acceptable transition?
I don’t need Reddit, I need engagement.

“Blusky is too political”
This feels like a very weird reason to not like bluesky, when there are many other reasons.

Lemmy/Piefed is defederated. I feel like that in itself is an improvement.
Impassionata@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I’m not saying it’s not an improvement but it’s not sufficient, either

What is your ideal reddit experience, so to speak?
Impassionata@lemmy.world 2 months ago
if I knew, I wouldn’t ask tbh…

Reddit circa 2013.
However, I’d like to take note that the world itself was far different in 2013. We’re asking for 2013 politic levels when the current world is obsessed with politics and some countries are within five years of a civil war, mine in particular.
