Worrying that this is the CHUD invasion from parler or one of those pretend places to data mine hate and sell powdered eggs, lead pills and gold to mostly helpless idiots. Some comment sections have gotten noticeable shittier and less civil lately. We don't need growth for the sake of it.

I'm a boomerang. Reddit has the content, but it's largely focused on the larger subs which are the ones I want to avoid. I'll have to decide whether or not I want to run into obvious tankies (mayo) or try to spot misinformation campaigns (reddit).

And reddit is getting worse in every way. Reddit wants to turn into an ad platform and that's the way things are going. Lot's more locked comments and posts, totally unchecked misinformation and dooming.

On iOS through firefox the google login prompt can't be closed. This is what prompted me back, I started using Voyager again.

I might come back and search for another home server, create a new account and delete my old one. Start fresh.
