  I was gonna make a comment about how at least lemmy is “picking up steam” user wise, but then I remembered all the dipshits and children that are on reddit. Lemmy is slower but content and discussion so far has been of much higher quality.

      i consider myself an anarchist and i agree with many of the opinions people have on here, but like holy shit i just want to look at stuff that isn’t politics for once. like i feel like that’s all lemmy has. not that reddit is much better but there’s some hidden gem communities on there, but ive yet to find any here

        I mean tbf, politics is all that is on a lot of people’s minds. Americans especially. Its kind of the front and center thing with TFG in charge. I’m just elated to see actual discussion, angry as it may be, instead of an endless chain of (Removed). It’s nostalgic and raw. It reminds me of the old days.

        I’d love a return to pre-Digg exodus Reddit, or slashdot in its heyday. Hacker news scratched that itch for a while, some instances here seem close if not quite the same.

  I was wondering what this was, maybe to do with my use of ad-blocking ?

    The speculation I saw was that it’s just Firefox in general. Folks were saying turning off ad blocking didn’t help.

      I tried in Firefox and duckduck go. Both blocked.

        I’m not getting the same error anymore, but the site still seems fucked up. At one point it loaded the desktop version of the old reddit format for no apparent reason on Firefox mobile.
