MODERATORS
Reddit was tolerable because of the app I used. With the apps gone, old.reddit a pain in the ass to use, and new reddit being a garbage mobile site, there's little reason to go back. Using it's site is such a chore, it's no longer worth it, even if it did have great content at one time. The content was getting pretty recycled even into the mid 2010s though.
Duno i dont even think about reddit anymore. I just enjoy beeing able to post in comunitys that have actuall working moderation instead of side wide mods that dont get niche cultural refferrences.
I really miss the worthless internet points.
Can't agree or disagree because i never had a real account.
On kbin / mbin you can see your worthless internet points again (as well as who it was that upvoted or downvoted you). You can live in that world once more.
All I can say is, lmao
Hmm. Yeah, I think it's less of either one dying, but a stirring event causing a sorting.
I didn't like what was happening over there, so I tried anything but reddit for a while, and the fediverse fit me better, so I settled here.
For the first few months after the API disaster I used Lemmy exclusively but then I came out as trans and went back to Reddit to read and participate in the trans subreddits because on Lemmy they don't have as many participants, resources and info.
Right now I'm at a point where I don't need it as much anymore and I'm ready to slowly get back to Lemmy only.
Although I mainly use Bluesky now since many artists switched to it and the feed is so much more controllable compared to Mastodon.
Edit: I edited the edit because people were not reading the edits when I created new edits
Edit : also I miss edits
Edit: BTW I am not saying edits are good or bad.
I'm active on both sites, my Reddit profile not being a secret to most communities on Lemmy. I don't see so much of an issue regarding either one, the transition not being any different from, say, alternating between Netflix and Amazon. The only thing I'd say bugs me is in fact the Reddit complaints, since people on almost every single site I've been to with a place for complaints have complained at least once about Reddit, like it's trendy even though it's actually better than most sites.
