My reason is that Reddit has opened a representative office in Turkey. This means the government can hand over IP addresses whenever it wants. In short, I came to Lemmy because freedom is gone. Fuck Reddit.

I mean, yeah the app was a way better experience than even desktop, but holy shit, the content!
It’s overflowing with fascist, racist, misogynist and violent stuff much more than even a year or two ago.
You get banned for pro violence posts that might be that in the vaguest sense. Wonder how they do that probably AI + human mods.
It always has that. It’s why the first things you do when joining any online platform is to find the block button for anything news, faith, or politics related.
It had far less of that at the start. It was a boiled frog effect for me. I realised I was just fighting through corporate trash to find a few gems, rather than filtering trash from a sea of gems.
The loss of 3rd party apps just gave me the impetus to jump ship.
True, it’s what I did on here too. It’s better for one’s mental health.
You’re right, but either it’s me nas I’ve become sensitized, or Reddit really is much more disgusting than ever.
