It has been almost two years I’ve been on this wonderful platform (Lemmy) and I kept my reddit account so that when people complain on reddit about oppressive mods, I direct them to Lemmy. I have gotten atleast ten or fifteen people over to Lemmy since. People who don’t like all the strict rules and Authoritarianism on there.
I did in the early days of Lemmy. But the Flavor Aid drinkers of reddit that are still on there today are likely a lost cause. If reddit making itself toxic and shitty won’t drive them away, there’s little I can do. And if we’re being honest, Lemmy isn’t super enticing.
