Comment on Some subreddits could be paywalled, hints Reddit CEO

  Welcome to Lemmy! If you thought Reddit was left leaning, you’re in for a wild ride!

  Also if you’re an American you probably shouldn’t be, because they automatically assume you’re from the Bible belt. They will simultaneously say they don’t care for American politics but then will always be talking about it.

  Linux is the best OS just don’t get into it. You better be using firefox. All the niche subs you had on Reddit aren’t here, and you’ll more likely just be blocking communities instead of subbing to anything.

  And no one reads the articles, way more than reddit imo

  The comments are slightly more interesting though.

  It’s not all that bad though, I’m being a little sarcastic, but only a little…

    Reddit has more than its fair share of right wing pearl clutching.

      Never said it didn’t, but reddit is more left leaning than right as a whole.

      Lemmy is just straight lefty though. I’m a liberal person so it doesn’t bother me other than it just being a massive circle jerk most of the time.

      Look I understood that when I made that comment no one would like it, but it’s just the truth…

      I’ve been here since the API garbage from reddit, and use it daily so I feel like I can make an honest assessment of my experience thus far.

      I like it, its great. Better than reddit in a lot of ways. If someone is/was a heavy Reddit user I recommend it.

        Fair enough. It was more the way it came out seemed like a misplaced jab. I get ya though.

        Also based on the popular vote from the last almost 1/4 century of presidential elections(bushes 2nd term being the outlier) the whole country leans left lol

  Welcome to the Fediverse! I’ve been here since the 3rd party app shutdown and haven’t used Reddit ever since. Niche communities are still lacking here, but it gets better as more people join. Also Lemmy servers and apps have gotten more stable over the past year. So I hope you’ll enjoy it here!
