Like, we’re in an interesting era of times where so many alternatives are cropping up because of the drastic and draconic practices that have been taken on the social media platforms we’ve commonly embraced. But eventually, starting new can get tiring after a while.
One of the great things about Lemmy is that you can control your user experience. No algorithms, no “suggestions” being forced on you, no ads, no data mining, no spez/Musk/Zuck. So curate my Lemmy space heavily and enjoy the peace and quiet and slow pace. R*ddit was my only social media for years so Lemmy is similar enough to that to be familiar and useful, but different enough to be worth using.
