Similar for me – but add onto it, when I joined, lemmy.world was the only one of the top 3 most populated instances (with lemmy.ml and beehaw) that had open registration

Thank you!! I’ve never been very active in this kind of social media, but TwoXChromosomes was one of my favorite subreddits. So glad to see that energy brought over here :)

I’m playing Octopath Traveller 2! Just grinding at this point before I start the ending :)

I figure reddit is going to get real shitty with the mass exodus, and I wanted to familiarize myself with a new social media app rather than watch my time waster from the last 6 years go down the toilet

Also I struggle with an eating disorder and continually got ads about intermittent fasting that were extremely triggering. I kept reporting them and they kept appearing in one way or another. So it really wasn’t hard to convince me to delete that shit

Relationship goals

Very good question. They mention that the former CEO was epstein’s “friend” - maybe it was him, and someone found out? I really have no idea but yeah it’s really gross that these companies are involved, there had to be feigned ignorance for so long.

Digging it so far. Some technical issues but I think they may just be due to the mobile app I am using (sometimes when I open a post, the comments displayed are the ones from the last post I looked at). But it feels much more… Democratic? Than reddit did.
