    I’m an exodusee as well, just a minnow at this point.

    I just got sick of the right wing bullshit, the censorship, the shills, the morons, the bootlickers…

    Hello all

    Ok, remove all military bases from those countries and expel all American soldiers and diplomats. No more sharing intelligence with the u.s, they’re compromised anyways

    Mods remove a post from /r/worldnews about Musk pushing for the US to leave NATO because it’s “not the appropriate subreddit”…? Excuse me, what the fuck???

      Mod decisions always baffled me, both on Reddit and Lemmy. We aren’t immune to it.

    We’re witnessing the second reddit wave now, just like we always knew it would come eventually when reddit crossed another enshitification threshold.

    Welcome all!

    I came from reddit due to overt censorship, so yeah. I hope this place gets more populated, reddit definitely has the userbase advantage for now.

      I’ve been here for a while now. The userbase can be seen as an advantage, but it’s also a negative. Things move so fast in reddit and everyone is just passing by each other. You can have actual conversations here though. It feels more communal.

      I want more users so niche communities can thrive, but I’m also worried about it becoming too much like Reddit has been for a while now.

    Absolutely. I’m here after a decade+ over there.

    Having not been using this place as regularly for the last couple of weeks, it definitely looks like there’s more upvotes on posts now in general compared to when I started up here about two months ago. Even just before this latest Reddit fuck up, it looks a lot to me like there’s been a steady influx lately. Like suddenly noticing that the grass has got longer.

      Oh yeah, I’ve only been on Lemmy a few months but I’ve noticed it. I was one baby face emoji (is that just a Voyager thing?) in a sea of old accounts, but recently I’ve been seeing more and more of those baby emojis

        I think it is just a Voyager thing, on Thunder I see a pink name & cake if a user joined today

      Basically yes. The alternatives passively become better simply because of the mainstream option becoming worse over time. I think it’s still going too slowly in general but I’m not complaining, better slow than not at all.

        Better slow than too fast too. Lemmy feels like a nice fairly small community. I’m not sure that’ll continue once it’s the size of Reddit. We’ll get more content and niche communities will be better served though, so there’s pros and cons.
