It depends, but… mostly yes. I don’t agree with most big companies ideologically speaking… I’d have a hard time finding work if I limited myself in that way.

Agreed. Also a Reddit migrant, and I feel like even if it’s changed here since our mini exodus (which I believe), I’m still finding it much more pleasant than Reddit.

So… by “users MUST not”, you mean you’d prefer if they didn’t.

Doesn’t stop them from showing up via All and Local, which is what I want to do without having the completely block these communities. Just my preference.

I haven’t looked at the PR, but if it’s really that simple, that doesn’t seem like the full solution. I don’t particularly want a sub with 10 users popping up on the front page after 3 upvotes just because it got to the top of that sub. Sub weight, as mentioned in the top comment here, should probably be taken in to account.

Yeah, I do. There’s just more content there. More articles. More questions. More discussion. Not all of it is good, but a lot of what I use reddit for is taking the temperature on things… games, movies, books, general opinions on news articles, etc. I like Lemmy, but it doesn’t have the userbase to make this my only “front page of the internet” for now.

This is the way to do it. Autocorrect is doing 90% of the work in either case anyway, lol.

I like that one, but a little misleading if it’s an IAMA. Maybe Lemmy Answer Anything? Though, LAY has a better ring to it than LAA now that I think about it.

That’s fine, but if someone is making something actually interesting for a community I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t be able to share it, provided that’s not the only reason they’re around. That gets harder to moderate, but if we’re talking “perfect world”, that’s what I would want.

Killing off third party apps was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I still browse Reddit, not gonna lie, but I don’t contribute anymore. And my mobile browsing will likely stop entirely once Apollo stops working tomorrow. I’m using Lemmy as a substitute, but also using this whole thing as a general opportunity to use social media less… less time mindlessly browsing reddit, more time doing things I actually enjoy.

Am I missing something?

Yeah. They want to kill the third party apps so everyone has to use the ad-supported Reddit app.

It’s not that complicated, but it’s not presented particularly well imo. I’m still getting used to it, and it took a minute to realize how content is kind of brought in to view, if that makes sense.
