This is my first comment from Lemmy. Thanks again to whomever suggested it.
Mine too! They recommended Lemmy on r/redditsafety.
Fuck Reddit.
Yes, and fuck discord apparently ?
What did discord do?
Selling out to the capitalist war machine. I was recommended to check out Matrix. Feel free to do the same.
I would like to suggest a second comment as well
Hell, might as well go for three. Keep em comin
Welcome. I joined from reddit in 2025, and happy to see more come over since Reddit has become a corporate, bot-filled, propaganda arm for many different groups
I appreciate it :)
Welcome to the party! Can I offer you a cat pic in these trying times?
I love it.
Mine too! Already having fun time!
Same — I never used Reddit but I found out about Lemmy from a Content Creator I enjoy. Seemed cool, a few privacy policies later and I’m here. The more I read about Reddit the more I’m glad I never used it.
I was super late to the party. Wasn't really a heavy user until right around the API changes.
Welcome my dude/dudette.
You picked a decent, reliable instance. Good choice.
Don't forget to block the Hexbear and LemmyGrad instances! Full of nothing but fake communist trolls.
Oh dear. I don't even know how to do that. I really appreciate the feedback.
Gimme a few minutes to tinker around in the settings.
EDIT: done. Thank you again.
Welcome. I joined 4 months ago and I've already seen a noticeable increase in users. Join some subs and your feed will start filling out nicely and you'll stop thinking about Reddit.
I'm seeing a lot more porn, which is neat. Dunno if it's normal for a new user or the algorythm dangling a carrot. But I'll take it!
Haha! I jumped ship after the API ruckus. Before the NSFW filter was readily available I blocked a lot of porn communities before I had a feed I could browse at work.
