The only way is forward, retreat is not an option.
Reddit lost basically 90% of its appeal to me when they banned third party apps. I am also sleeping better since purging it out of my life so screw that.
They lost me when they multi acct/IP banned me over being super critical over how far they strayed from Aaron's vision of what reddit is supposed to be.
Also they are banning low level pr0n subs as a precursor to the tumblr purges to make them look good to investors.
Oooh, where can I read about this spicy news? I haven't been back to reddit since my app was killed
Ehh, I don't know. I keep vpn thats not (yet) banned to keep tabs on the goings on. I doubt anyone in the media will report because they are all of the same cloth.
But all my small pr0n subs were banned and I have an alt acct they don't have linked to my IP's.
-First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
-Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
-Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
-Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
First they came for the porn subs...
So, what shall we doo :-D
There's lemmynsfw! And also the same answer for any community growth: post content 😁
Agreed on the sleeping better. There are things it had that Lemmy doesn't but honestly I never want this site to catch all the way up. Reddit had become bad for me.
I'm still on reddit, but now its in the context of a saboteur/partisan. IP ban me, thats funny like clown shoes. I'm a human hand grenade.
If you run, you gain one. If you move forward, you gain two.
