    So just like that a bunch of communities I’m subscribed to are gone? I guess I could make another account on beehaw but this is quickly becoming more trouble than it’s worth. I’ve broken my Reddit addiction. Maybe it’s time to leave lemmy before I get attached.

      @johndroid Lemmy and the fedeverse isn’t for everyone. If your used to getting told what to do by corporations go back to Twitter/Reddit and they will sensor you and sell your activity/Data if you wanna stay free stick with lemmy and Mastodon

        It’s not about getting told what to do or having your data sold, it’s about a friction-free social media experience. It depends on what the aims of the platform are and what the desires of potential users are. Personally, I’d imagine most users want something simple and easy, where they don’t have to think about what and where and how to post. But if the intent of the platform is to make that harder, then that’s fine, it’ll just result in fewer users and less content/activity.

          @ppptan @johndroid Reddit and lemmy are hard when you first start l. Eventually you will get muscle memory and it will become second nature. I think people that are on Lemmy and Mastodon are there to escape oppression from the man (Corporate) They all provide a service but people want freedom. Nobody can’t stop you from using Reddit. We just know that the CEO is there for the bottom dollar no matter who gets in the way.
