Hi hello. Just got my Lemmy account today. A refugee from Reddit. I had been a reddit user for over 11 years. Apparently I pissed off an admin saying something. I'm not sure exactly what because the comment was deleted and they banned me. I assume the comment was related to Canada and Trump nonsense. Whatever.
This is actually great timing because I didn't want to use a social media company in the US given the state they are in now and the direction they're heading.
Being a left leaning Canadian, getting banned from reddit was probably just a matter of time anyway.
I don't think the old rules will apply much longer. Trump is playing a game the normal US government have never had to deal with. By the time everyone gets up to speed, Trump will have purged anyone that could have done something.
I think the USA is lost at this point. Damaged beyond repair unless the anti-coup happens soon.
