Just wondering what brought everyone here.
Background: I was banned from Reddit for questioning the system and feel that true leftist ideologies on Reddit are severely censored (despite being considered one of the few last leftist social media platforms). I think the left needs more tech literacy and I hope the Fediverse is the future.
So, I am wondering what made folks curious about alternative options?
When the ‘fun’ side of reddit became unrecognizeable, then gradually after using Lemmy all I really do on Reddit is post in more useful places where I can share advice on chronic illness, and its really unfortunate there’s not much in comparison for communities here otherwise Reddit would be deleted already.
Political comments shouldn’t turn into vaguely threatening DMs, so many people on there nowadays need their teeth knocked out like some airpods for that shit.
most of my fun subs got you insta banned from more serious subs becauase no joking or mockery of weirdos was allow. had to separate out my accounts. even then I’d have crazy reddit weirdos stalking me and reporting my comments on other subs trying to get me banned for one comment i said in their sub.
