Newish to Lemmy, but left due to Reddit terrible mods.
Reddit mods have less power to remove unwanted speech than Lemmy admins do. If you are upset because mods would not let you say something in their communities, Lemmy is not going to be more accommodating for that.
Hey newbies! Confused about how it all works? Don't worry, you'll get used to the confusion. Also, check out [email protected] for a good niche community.
Damn I've been here this whole time and I'm still not subscribed to that community. Nice one!
It actually is true that it takes time to find your way around the fediverse. But that's also kind of nice because it means there's always cool new communities to find. A lot of my current favorite communities are ones I didn't find until after being here for over a year.
I should take the time to make a list of some of the hidden gems and sticky it somewhere.
If anyone's wondering what you should do first, the first thing you should do is block hexbear, and the next thing you should do is join any instance other than lemmy.ml. lemmy.world is a good choice, but there's probably one you'll like better.
If you want to know the most trans-friendly instance, it's lemmy.blahaj.zone. There are people who will tell you it's Hexbear. Those people are liars.
There is also a 196 community here on world, and a third community on blahaj, because the original mods are a little cray cray.
Id like to point out there are also some really good mobile apps for lemmy. I use sync for lemmy. Hopefully others will recommend there favorites. There are quite a few good ones!
Did something new happen on reddit?
Nothing new in particular. People are sick of power tripping mods. Also people that joined Reddit many years ago are sad to see it's turned into something else in many ways. I'm brand new here, I am over Reddit as I just got banned for "threatening violence". I appealed to no avail. I got angry regarding a post about an adult purposely running down a 12 year old. I expressed what I "would feel like doing" to that driver if he knocked one of my sons over on purpose. I didn't actually threaten a real person, it was based on a hypothetical scenario. But no apparently that's threatening violence. So yeah, I'm here.
ah. I thought they did some new, fresh BS and caused another exodus.
It's meta and x that are causing interest in the fediverse again. Pixelfed has gained a lot of users.
