You don’t have one for “Longtime lurker who used reddit for their daily dose of catching-up-with-the-world but found that the r/all was increasingly showing reality tv discussion subs that they had no interest in”.

My favorite mod @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website moved here but also fuck spez.

I was banned for goading the Whitehouse Reddit into nuclear War with Iran so we could all stop seeing press conferences of Caroline Levitt.

Top row, left column for me. I've actually been around since the third party app ban, but lost my first two accounts: VLemmy -> lemm.ee -> lemmy.zip
Also switched over during the API drama, but I think only my first account (kbin.social) is lost. I did stop by lemmy.world for a bit, and think I also tried piefed.

There was one exchange I recently had with an obvious Israeli.
Guy just kept saying didn't understand and such any time I asked why European colonizers had any right to middle eastern land, without involving an imaginary sky man.
Then he/she shut up when I asked about the cultural genocide and infant stealing inflicted on the Mizrahi Jews, and the involuntary birth control given to Ethiopian Jews.
Fascism is an ever shrinking circle.
Yeah it's almost impossible to convince people on the Internet of anything, nevertheless to get them to see things from other people's perspectives.
The worst part is if arguing against genocide won't change someone's mind there, then nothing would. People are so into their own little bubbles nowadays, that they've forgotten how to change their opinions based on new facts presented to them and just say they were wrong. It really sucks.
Everytime I want to prove a good point, I end up deleting the reply and think "what's the point? They won't listen to me and will just go back and forth with me without budging even a little bit".
Lemmy isn't perfect or anything, but it's not even close to how fucked up Reddit comments can be. Which is crazy because Reddit is usually pretty strict nowadays (at least it was a few years ago before I left with the API changes)

Yeah, they finally just killed r/all completely, which is why I'm here. I fucking hate how reddit became this corporate cesspool. It used to be just a regular cesspool with some content I liked.

None of those, I just heard about this on r/degoogle and came over.

The 3rd party app-ocalypse made me create an account here but it was the reddit ads that eventually made me quit the Reddit app. At some point I realised more of my feed was taken up by autoplay video ads than actual content. The slow decline in intelligent conversations really accelerated after they killed the apps too.
So far I like it here, there's less content and that can be a bit disappointing but it's probably healthier that I can't scroll endlessly. It's also nice to feel like your posts don't get buried under a torrent of other content the moment you make them.
I agree about the content and really think that it is healthier this way, too. But I also think that the content here is somehow less negative.
And as you say, posts do not get buried. I am way more engaged here because of that and had a lot more interactions. -

I dont know if it's bots or culture or whatever but the comments on reddit just slid into repetitive blither over a handful of years. This is the internet so I dont expect all interactions to be thought-provoking prose, but I do expect people to at least have their own thoughts. Here on Lemmy, for example, I can find that good ol' home grown, individualistic blither. Just the way the internet intended.

It's been three years so I can't remember, but does reddit not have a way to block certain subs from r/all (at a user level)?
A key part of shaping your lemmy experience is that you can just block any community you aren't interested in, while still getting the benefits of an All feed.

1, 2, and 7 for me. Map it like a phone dialer.
But honestly, 3 was never in my mind lol. I hardly know big redditors to the point they left and went here

I used to rarely, if ever, actually log in to my reddit account. Reddit used to have a good set of defaults and I had a list of my favourites in my head. Then I started using RES to block some of the subreddits I did not want to see. Eventually, it got so bad that maintaining the RES blocklist became a hassle.
Lemmy has much better defaults and this time I’m actually making an effort to engage with people. -

neither. the privacy and degoogled posts are better cause of the lower level of auditing.
