I’m glad I got caught up in the great exodus when they fucked over the 3rd party app devs. I’d read Reddit with Apollo, and it was mostly passive consumption of the posts and discussions being thrown out there by the faceless masses.
Here, it feels more like having actual discussions with real people, and I started actively participating right away. (Granted, this place isn’t impervious to bots and trolls, but for now it’s a smaller target at least)
Reddit is a cesspool of shite. So glad I left and found Lemmy.

I actually was still using RIF till the end. Took almost a month break and started using Sync for Lemmy the day it came out.
I mean Lemmy is also a bit of a cesspool at times, but it’s home now at least.
But it’s our cesspool. Not an IPO driven anti third party corpo.
Why would Lemmy be immune?
