Stoked to be a part of the new community. Still have trouble explaining to my friends exactly what the fediverse is in simple terms without making it seem more complicated than it is
-
Reddit/insert enshittified service here: data stored by corporation
-
Fediverse: data stored by the community itself
-
Threadiverse: above, but presented like Reddit threads.
-
Why it's important: takes power back from FAANG and gives it to the people; allows you to store your social media with people you trust, including just yourself; can be studied or forked by users
I know I've left out a lot of details, but that's why it's a simplification 😄.
Been an active redditor since 2009 when my friend showed it to me, and exclusively on RIF since starting to use it on a smartphone. I've definitely felt it getting worse over the years (reddit, not the immaculate perfection that was RIF) so maybe this is just what the doctor ordered. Sorry oldheads for being part of the wave of newbs but you're stuck with us now! Take it up with spez the greedy little pigboy.
At this point I just want to see it suffer lmao
just hit both of my accounts, nearly 12 years old on the older one, with power delete suite. edited and then deleted my whole post history and then deleted the accounts.
RIP Baconreader, been on it for the better part of a decade and the official app can't come close. This is a nice change of pace though, and I don't mind moving over at all.
Rest in peace beautiful RIF 😥 10+ years went by quickly! Time for new adventures now with both old and hopefully new family at Lemmy!
Hey Spez, you need us more than we need you. Have a shitty rest of your day pal
Abandoned the Reddit ship when RIF went down. It's sad to see something go I've been using for the better part of 15 years. But, new things will take its place and reddit will probably die bc of their stubborn greed.
Sometimes things have to burn to make room for new things to blossom. I hope this is one of those times.
Sync for reddit brought me here. Bye Reddit Heyo Lemmy
15 year reddit user finally migrating over. Never thought I would leave but here we go.
It's an odd feeling. I knew this was coming but could still check Reddit as I usually did via Boost. Now they're all shutting down and there's no option besides their own shitty app. No thanks.
R.I.P. RIF.
WOOOOOOOOOOO
WELCOME TO LEMMY EVERYONE, this is the highest post on the instance currently, hope everyone is having a good time here.
Be sure to check the communities section!
Honored to be here. Hopefully the scaling issues Lemmy might run into isn't too much.
Got here after RIF died, so sorry for being part of the chaos.
I don't post much, but I hope I'll be a positive addition here.
