Welcome! I hope you have fun here!
For me I dropped Reddit fully when I realized it was going down more than lemmy.world ever did lol
Welcome!
If anyone is looking for an unpopularopinion sub here, check out opinionhavers which I'm trying to get going.
There is also this one but mods took it offline for a while to protest something or other, so I figure it's good to have alternatives. The mod drama over there if you care.
[email protected] is open, people created threads yesterday, so not sure what you mean?
It was shut down for around a week to a week and a half, and now it's back. That's what I meant.
The point was: now that it's been shown that the mod is willing to take the sub offline in protest of various stuff, maybe it would be good to support an alternative as well so eggs can be in several baskets instead of just one.
Did something new happen on reddit?
Nothing new in particular. People are sick of power tripping mods. Also people that joined Reddit many years ago are sad to see it's turned into something else in many ways. I'm brand new here, I am over Reddit as I just got banned for "threatening violence". I appealed to no avail. I got angry regarding a post about an adult purposely running down a 12 year old. I expressed what I "would feel like doing" to that driver if he knocked one of my sons over on purpose. I didn't actually threaten a real person, it was based on a hypothetical scenario. But no apparently that's threatening violence. So yeah, I'm here.
ah. I thought they did some new, fresh BS and caused another exodus.
It's meta and x that are causing interest in the fediverse again. Pixelfed has gained a lot of users.
Newish to Lemmy, but left due to Reddit terrible mods.
Reddit mods have less power to remove unwanted speech than Lemmy admins do. If you are upset because mods would not let you say something in their communities, Lemmy is not going to be more accommodating for that.
Eh, at least it's way easier for everyone to move on somewhere else (still on Lemmy)
Bah, the 196 drama was entertaining
It is the first time I see myself as a hiring manager. It's not that displeasing though.. Welcome everyone!
Holy cow this is me!
Welcome! Here are a few pointers to get you started
