    I apologize in advance as I’m one of the many reddit refugees seeking alternatives. I can’t believe how fast reddit is unraveling and you’d think with u/spez’s recent AMA he would try to placate the community instead of inciting the situation even further. Anyway, Lemmy’s pretty cool so far.

      Don’t apologize. All refugees are welcome here. Although… there is one small thing you could do to help. Maybe make an account on a less crowded instance? Too many people see “dev-run” and think “main instance”. We do need to spread out a bit to make this sustainable.

          You just add another account under the arrow on the top left side. Then you can switch between the accounts on different instances if you like. But I prefer having one account only on a small instance.

                  Yeah it’s a common problem and I had it too. There was many threads about it. It’s pretty much hidden.

                  Anyway, if you click on the top left hamburger menu in the app, there is a tiny arrow there at the top right. Click it. :)

      They have people astroturfing hard right now arguing that reddit is not wrong for anything they are doing
