  I made an alt account for when I actually need to use reddit to ask something in a hobby group that I used to participate in, but I no longer participate in reddit overall, comment or contribute in the groups I formerly patronized. Just noticed that today’s my cake day here - the day I left reddit.

    Happy cake day! Hope you’re liking it here. :)

      Thanks! Yes, I’m not going anywhere. Hope to see the fediverse grow smartly.

  I would like to fully move over, but unfortunately most of my hobbies and things I’m into just don’t have a large enough audience to have an active designated group for.

  There’s a Dead by Daylight one on here, but the last post was like a few months ago, and then after that almost a year. I’m also super into modded minecraft, but all those ones are botted reddit repost rippers. I haven’t looked yet, but I heavily doubt Hypixel SkyBlock is gonna show up.

  Unfortunately, my lust to see idiots make a fool of themselves in public spaces is too strong to keep me away from reddit, and therefore, I become the fool.

    I feel that. And I mean, sure, those communities don’t exist… yet… But maybe someone could create them and see who shows up. ;)

  After a while, you realize this place is not perfect either. Too much Linux (although I’m on Linux now), too much “voter suppression” messages from the left (which I’m no longer), tankies or whatever, I could swear I’ve seen several anti-Japanese/racist posts and the same crypto drivel you’d find on reddit.

    Well choosing your communities is also key. idk.

      I kind of wanted to see memes on the memes community, but maybe the moderation is a bit too loose…

  I highly reccomend making the move to Piefed. The Lemmy devs promote westerners all off themselves so that Putin and Xi Jinping can fuck more people’s wives.

  • Pudutr0n@feddit.cl ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Haven’t tried Piefed but yeah, .ml gets a bit cooky sometimes.

    source

    • yermaw@sh.itjust.works ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Some say lemmy is shit because .ml keeps promoting bollocks, everyone else says lemmy is shit because they try to stop .ml promoting bollocks.

      Can’t win. Can’t see it being different anywhere else.

  Like, 30 minutes in. So far the front page is a breath of fresh air. Reddit is unusable as of a few months ago. Just trash on top of trash.

    Reddit has been shit for like 5+ years at that larger levels, but some small niche hobby and similar subs are still decent.

      until some weirdo mod joins the sub and decides to ban you for posts you made elsewhere 5 years ago

  Then they go back to reddit after 2 weeks

  • SeventySeven@sh.itjust.works ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    It’s been 2 years for me, and I never went back. Well, aside from looking up the random tech question here and there since Reddit is in every search result. (Use redlib to view reddit stuff!) I am quite liking the fediverse. It has this early Internet forum vibe to it. I kinda hope it stays small for a little while longer. More people probably means more enshittification.

    I’m non-binary and don’t commune with binary choices.

    I can be in parallel on Reddit and Lemmy. Eventually I may feel totally comfortable in one of them to ditch the other, or maybe not. Who cares?

    Plus there are two sides for users in social media, producer and consumer.

    I can be on Insta as a consumer checking what my friends are up to and on pixelfed posting my pictures and sharing the links with my friends.

    Nothing says community like splintering the already tiny community into 90 smaller distros sub-communities

      It’s all one fediverse, the only difference is who crafts your frontend.

      Splintering nothing. I’m on Piefed right now. The Fediverse means it plays nice with Lemmy just fine. Same with Mbin.

    Beautiful thing about the fediverse is that people can choose and no one get’s excluded if you do not agree with the popular choice. Hope it stays that way.

    • Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      But how else will I feel superior in my echo-chamber based opinions, now that everyone has a choice? I need to feel like I fit in with the masses but not TOO much…

    Care to explain what piefed is and how it differs from lemmy? I thought it was just one of the instances in lemmyverse

    • Sunshine@piefed.zip ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      PieFed written in python has consolidated comments, flairs, spoilers, polls, topics, feeds (like multireddits), proper blocks, hashtags, piped video integration, disclaimer messages, better mod and reporting tools.

    • cm0002@piefed.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      PieFed is an alternative platform in the same social media category of Lemmy, "Forum and link aggregator".

      It's younger, but is being rapidly developed, esp considering it's written in mostly python instead of Rust.

      Biggest benefit though, is it doesn't come with toxic political ideologies attached like Lemmy does (https://lemmy.world/post/29072279)

      Also why we're moving to more generic terms like "Threadiverse" instead of "Lemmy-verse"

    I’m not ready for that yet because change is terrifying and it should always be avoided at all cost.

      I get it.

      When Voyager got Piefed support I exported my communities and decided to try it. Loving it so far!
