I was device and IP banned for saying Americans needed to have the Guillotines in the streets.
I stand by what I said lol.
Americans needed to have the Guillotines in the streets.
We no longer have the productive capability.
There are plenty of people who could build a guillotine in their garage. It’s not complicated.
Bottom right huh?
Well played lol.

Dude why did you delete your original reply. I wasn’t being serious and your original reply perfectly mirrored the mood.
Lol noted, after reading a few chud comments in other threads it made me suspect you weren’t joking lol. My bad.

+50 .ml credit! Good job, comrade. Nutomic is proud. /s
I used the Reddit is Fun app for like 15 years. The second they took that away I was gone.
Same. Rif was the only good way to browse reddit on mobile imo
You can still use RiF through unofficial patches. I do. I’m here because the bots and hidden account history is just too much to know if I’m even talking to a real person anymore.
I still have a reddit account, but I mostly only use it to look at video game development stuff, and even that is getting less useful with all the AI slop out there.
I still have RiF installed 🤷
I like it more here because I don’t get banned for saying I think more conservatives should drink raw milk so they’ll get listeria and die
YATZEE!
They took my app dammit. Twice actually, I’d been on alien blue. I’d rather put up with you people than their awful app
Long live Apollo.
I used Apollo, got the lifetime membership, about 6 or 8 months later it gets shut down
Yeah pretty much
It woulda been close to a year but damn I’m happy that’s how I get to remember Reddit features
Me, too. Not even mad. Christian earned it.
But did you know, Apollo was born of Zeus, the Thunder-bearing god?
So say we all!
Bottom left. I was curious. Also I thought maybe, just maybe europe.pub would not be 90% posts about USA and Trump. How naive I was! Turns out I just found a second reddit, and it’s occasionally good!
6/9 also the algorithm change in r/popular was the most damning. Reddit says that ICE is suddenly cool?
Trump threatened greenland, had all the tech bros at his inauguration and one of them was high on ketamine and heiling, so I figured it was time to leave as many American social media platforms as possible.
The only one I still use is youtube and that’s in a logged out state and in a browser.
Can’t say I miss Facebook, Instagram and reddit. It’s been over a year and I barely think about it nowadays.
I have my issues with Lemmy, but you can filter out most of the bs so at this point it’s mostly memes, animal photography and other wholesome stuff that’s left in my feed. Life is good.

Third party apps did it for me and most of us with accounts around 3 years old.
One thing that sucks about switching servers is that you reset your bragging rights.
Same. That’s when my original account was created here.
none of these say anything about moving due to privacy concerns and I feel like thats a huge market here.
Tbf, the fediverse isn’t private at all and holds no pretense that it is. Yeah your instance isn’t selling your data or doing the creepy profile-mapping that meta does, but it’s important to be aware that this is very much a public forum
Middle left.
Also, the fediverse is, in some ways, worse for privacy because of the types of information that need to be shared for federation to work.
Middle left specifically mentions reddit, I’m not here because of anything to do with reddit. I’m here because I prefer open source platforms that preserve more privacy than proprietary ones that will eventually start asking for gov’t ID.
Column 1 straight down Team!
The 3rd party app-ocalypse made me create an account here but it was the reddit ads that eventually made me quit the Reddit app. At some point I realised more of my feed was taken up by autoplay video ads than actual content. The slow decline in intelligent conversations really accelerated after they killed the apps too.
So far I like it here, there’s less content and that can be a bit disappointing but it’s probably healthier that I can’t scroll endlessly. It’s also nice to feel like your posts don’t get buried under a torrent of other content the moment you make them.
I dont know if it’s bots or culture or whatever but the comments on reddit just slid into repetitive blither over a handful of years. This is the internet so I dont expect all interactions to be thought-provoking prose, but I do expect people to at least have their own thoughts. Here on Lemmy, for example, I can find that good ol’ home grown, individualistic blither. Just the way the internet intended.
I agree about the content and really think that it is healthier this way, too. But I also think that the content here is somehow less negative. And as you say, posts do not get buried. I am way more engaged here because of that and had a lot more interactions.
I will never use the official app. It’s just so bad. With the API changes one month ago I can’t use rif anymore so I’m here.
The API change and the general tone they took towards the community when they implemented it.
Thats technically the first box, when Reddit walled off their API to third party vendors all the good apps were killed… kinda. I’m still using Boost, they use to proxy for Reddit but now they implemented Lemmy for the past 4 years.
