    I stuck around read-only on old.reddit.com after about a month of not using it. Then they changed that on mobile, so then I migrated to Lemmy.

    It doesn’t have the same level of content or communities…seems like far fewer “normies” have found their way here. In some ways, that’s nicer. In some ways, it’s worse.

    But I don’t think I could go back to Reddit. Lemmy scratches that same itch, and it’ll likely only get bigger as time goes on. Probably not as big as Reddit was though.

      I’m kind of okay with Lemmy, or at least this instance of it, not becoming quite as big as reddit. Reddit was just an absolute firehose of bullshit by the end, and you had to wade through so many posts worth of crap, spam, Onlyfans shilling nonsense, reposts, and so on and so forth before you found anything interesting in most of the general subs. While the volume of content on Lemmy is obviously lower, I think the quality of it is noticeably higher. In my experience, anyhow.

      People seem to make posts about things because they actually care about whatever it is – or just making Lemmy a more active platform – and not because they want to algorithmically please the hivemind and garner a shitload of upvotes, or have some chump award them gold, or whatever.

  What’s Reddit like nowadays?

  Haven’t been over there since the apps died.

    A lot of niche subreddits still dark honestly. I still run into it when searching obscure things (the only reason I ever go to Reddit)

    Pretty much the same.

    Bots galore.

    And mods who are still banning everyone who breathes.

    The only people left over there are the ones with their heads in the sand.

    Depends on the subreddit and how the mods reacted.

    For mainstream users nothing changed. There’s two subreddits I stay active on. But I’m trying to make a point to make keep creating content on activity protocol.

      My teen is a big Redditor and definitely notices poorer quality content. He knows my choice to no longer be there, but it’s not like I tried to be evangelical about it: he needs to decide for himself what values he stands up for, how he chooses to spend his entertainment time and attention.

      He’s fascinated by human motivations and is a big reader of r/AmITheAsshole. It used to lead to some great discussions. We have t noticed whether there are less frequent postings but there are definitely a lot fewer worth discussing.

      Unfortunately last timeI checked on Lemmy, there was a fledgling community but neither the scale nor the cultivation to be interesting.

      Thanks! Any clue on how I can access it from Kbin? We're supposed to be federated but I can't find that community using the search option for federated communities

  You people are like a jealous ex partner that you just shit talk all day. But you’d take them back the second you had the chance.

  • TrickDacy@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    • LemmyIsFantastic@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Can’t you just go back whenever you want? It’s more like Linux users comparing against Windows.

    Really? It’s been turning ass for 10 years. Being ass shouldn’t be surprising

      I believe reddit jumped the shark after the obama ama. Too big a surge of users to keep the cultural norms and enough mainstream media attention for the admins to start seeing dollar signs. Thanks Obama!

  Narrator: And this post contributed less than nothing to everyone’s time.

  If you’re mad at me being right and replying to this, I’m glad I could participate in the time-wasting bullshit train and make you mad!
