Second wave of Reddxiters on Lemmy in 3...
Yep, I’m one of them
Hi
I just joined - in fact this is my first comment. I was tired of my page (and now comment sections) getting flooded with ads.
The Reddit experience isn’t going to get better, it’s just going to get more profitable for shareholders.
Welcome! I came over during the API lockdown because I didn't want to use their shitty app on mobile.
I generally like it more over here, I'm not doom scrolling as much, and while not all of my niche community's are here, I do feel like I have more of a quality experience in them though.
I previously had issues with Reddit before the API drama, and I was happy to find a new similar community where I can hang out with people. While a smaller community, I actually think it's usually more of a positive than a negative.
If Reddit pulls these kinds of moves two more times or so, I'm 100% certain Lemmy will have all the niche communities you'd ever want. This place is much better!
Just logged into my year old account, checks out
Hopefully I'm thinking of maybe getting reddit just to copy content to lemmy and to advertise it.
Someone already got stealing from reddit fully automated. It's mostly for porn.
As they say, horniness is the stepmother of invention.
