And now I'm here!

I remember Reddit. I used to like it there.

I'm glad that I don't use Reddit and have no intention on doing so. I remember there was a very talented artist who was wrongfully accused of using AI and banned on the art subreddit. That artist got banned even though receipts were shown to the mods proving the art was not AI, and I guess with this policy, I'd be at risk of being banned from Reddit altogether because I for sure would've upvoted the art if I did have a Reddit account, it was amazing.

Reddit says the vast majority of users will not be affected Is that because the vast majority of users are bots? 🤔

F*ck those Reddit guys. Why is anyone still at that corporate swamp ?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Social media should never be corporate, ever. Fuck reddit, fuck Meta, fuck LinkedIn, and all the rest.

Except Tom from Myspace, he's cool.

Is this after it is banned or before it is banned? Either way, seems ridiculous

I barely used Reddit - good riddance, this is what spurred me to sign up here. The right wing infestation of social media is nasty.

Reddit really likes it's exit waves

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (4 children)

This is actually what got me to swap as it reminded me some content will be banned, and so the social media I've had for over a decade and thought was going to be the only classic site to retain freedom of speech and expression had proven itself that they will not be afraid to start taking baby steps towards controlling and censoring media. And in the contents section of this post was a person spreading the news of this alternative. So here I am.

Nobody elected the mods or the admins. And the management has shown itself to be, at least, MAGA-adjacent.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, I just moved over. Its a shame but things are going to get crazy online.

Finally made the permanent switch over to Lemmy. I left a link in the Reddit Safety post so anyone else could convert easily.

It’s an absurd overreach to say the least; good riddance to the corpo-bot platform.

I'm gonna buy a Luigi board to ask the guidance of Aaron Schwartz because I'm sure he is dying to get revenge
