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?


I was already “over” Reddit and fully invested in Lemmy by the time RIF went down, but RIF actually going from 100% working to not working…I actually watched it happen. That was surreal. I think that’s when it really hit me that I’m not considered economically viable anymore.
