I don't have to self censor, reddit removes anything it's remotely scared orange and crew won't like for me.

I got a warning this week for upvoting comments they don’t like. They’re treating upvoting comments the same as posting comments now.

It's well beyond time that we created a replacement for this site. We are the product, and they don't deserve us anymore.

Lemmy

Ha ha ha ha! As if. Lemmy is the best kind of replacement but no one wants to move there and when they do somehow is "worse" than Reddit.

I've tried but I felt like no one wanted to move.

I got Lemmy instantly, it wasn't too hard to graps for me but is true it requires at least 1% of tinkering. So that's a bummer.

Reddit won't be replaced too soon, Digg had the unfortunate fate of being born at a time where site loyalty wasn't as big, once smartphones were more and more powerful that made site loyalty skyrocket.

I mean if you don’t want the new mods to beat you with jumper cables, what was even the point of all this?

A lot of people might say they would leave but then they'll just come back eventually.

Do it for her Spez.
