Inception bitch!
Reddit has become practically unusable. Mods censor EVERYTHING even if it doesn't "break the rules" it's worthless trying to have honest discussions.

Their threshold for "calls to violence" is ridiculous. Got a ban for commenting I'd slap someone just like the person who got pranked slapped the person who jump scared them.
Luigi
Luigi is a hero and I don't care if anyone thinks otherwise.
Luigi is a bright, shinning example of what happens when the powers that be stop listening to the complaints and needs of the peasantry.
You'd think they'd have learned that the last several dozen times lords got too high and mighty and triggered a violent revolt/uprising.. but alas..
If they sentence him to death it's gonna be the white people version of George Floyd.

Dude im so tired of bans and creepy tracking that ensures you cant engage on the site... I do enjoy the reddit user friendly platform but im so sick of the overreach from the mods.. i have had an account up for a while that just got permanently banned because I accidentally engaged with a sub i forgot had banned my og account.. and because of that old account that had an IP ban it was somehow tied to my new account made a whole year later! Even though i use duckduckgo with full protection and cleared all my data.. but Im done.. its not worth the headache..and trying to use lemmy world now feels better. Still getting used to it here

I fucking hate Reddit.
So spot on! And i needed a place to vent. I'm glad lemmyworld lets us do that. But I'm so done with reddit. They leave up absolutely toxic awful comments and users that are actually bots, but then punish and route out real users... I didn't really believe the dead internet theory until i realized how much reddit targets real users..
I hear you. Right there with ya.
they are here now
They will follow us everywhere. If the medium is commercial, the capitalists will capture it. If its public, the extreme social interest groups will capture it.
The only thing Twitter has over something like Bluesky is the fact that Bluesky is so milquetoast and nice that you don't really get any of the drama you get on Twitter. Like, I never see comic fans going "Black Bolt would DESTROY Saitama in a fight!" and anime fans going "Nu uh! ONE PUNCH!" on Bluesky.
Same with Lemmy tbh. Lemmy is 80% politics, 5% memes about politics, 5% memes about Lemmy being better than Reddit, and 10% Linux.
Bluesky is refreshing
It used to be so much more Linux, but replacing that with politically charged statements parading as memes isn't a much better alternative. My two least favorite parts of Lemmy are how every conversation is somehow just one degree of separation from Linux or Nazis. Meme about dogs? Now the conversation is about genocide.

Well other than politics reddit is quite good. It's the best for asking stuff about unis, degrees and jobs
Which part is your favourite? The ads every few posts, the lack of meaningful discussion, or the constant barrage of notifications with no purpose?
No it isn't. You can't talk freely in there at all without being banned.
I think OP means "the mediocre, least bad intersection between critical mass and topical discussion."
Like, you can probably find users/subs about universities/fields and actually find people in them to respond. Lemmy is great, but good luck finding a mass of discussion around a niche location/field.
Reddit is horrible and deteriorating, yes, but still.
