I was fed up with reddit and looking to make a change that won't put money in spez's pocket, arrived a few days ago.

This was me during the APIcalypse. Since joining Lemmy, I have:
- Realized I'm trans
- Procured a Steam Deck
- Started pirating again
- Been on HRT for over a year and counting
- Developed a chronic dependency on Yuri manga
- Lost 50-60 lbs
I hope you have a good time here as well!
I just arrived today myself, after being temp-banned for 7 days for some bullshit reasons that the appeal team agreed were bullshit so they unbanned me, but not before someone else perma-banned me for violating the rules on 'my other accounts' -- I've had a single reddit account for the entire 14 years I've been there, I don't even make throwaways, so, even more bullshit. I appealed that one too, but even if it's overturned I'm not sure I'm going back. They've gotten real fucking fashy all of a sudden with the censorship, banning people for upvoting shit and calling it 'inciting violence.' Fuck 'em.
Yep and when you're perma banned you're fucked. They don't look at the reasons, they don't engage with people... it's ridiculous
Then everyone banned or permabanned should end the complain with something like "and I'm opening an account in Lemmy. Farewell".
Oooooh I like that
Corporate assholes.
Always happy to see the Fediverse getting more popular! 😃
It was a "alternatives to American apps/sites" on Reddit that got me here
What happened 2/12?
Hey everybody! This guy doesn't know about 2/12! Let's all laugh at him! Ha ha ha ha ha!
.........I have no idea. Does ANYONE know what happened?
hexbear lost its domain and went offline
Hey everybody! This guy KNOWS things! Let's all laugh at the NERD!!! Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
looks around
But seriously, thank you for that knowledge. I learned something today! But, I got this whole comedy bit going here....and the number one rule of comedy is that you have to COMMIT!!!
Hey everybody! Such a mockery this person is within our vicinity! Ha ha ha ha ha! Such comedy to be had at ones expense!
People getting sick and tide of Reddit. TBH I’m still salty over them killing 3rd party apps and I’m so glad they did because that drew the line for me, also fuck spez.
I'd be here more if I didn't need to re-log in every few pages. It's annoying, and I haven't found a solution.
"What?! Logged out again?! Well, screw it, at least Reddit doesn't log me out every time I refresh a page."
Shaddow Banned from Reddit for making some Luigi Mangione prayer candles got thousands of likes and bam old high karma account banned forever. No response from Reddit. Noticed on the shadow ban page that tons of people getting these bans everyday and no response from Reddit . Suggested we protest at Reddit headquarters in SF and now I’m banned from Shadow page ban lol. Nice to be here though
Been checking and commenting on Lemmy everyday since I made my account. Its my new first opened app of the day now
Joined up yesterday and have been pretty happy so far. Have been looking for an alternative so i could ditch reddit since the API changes and had no idea this place existed until i saw a random thread yesterday
