Long live Apollo.
I used Apollo, got the lifetime membership, about 6 or 8 months later it gets shut down
Yeah pretty much
It woulda been close to a year but damn I’m happy that’s how I get to remember Reddit features
Column 1 straight down Team!
none of these say anything about moving due to privacy concerns and I feel like thats a huge market here.
Tbf, the fediverse isn’t private at all and holds no pretense that it is. Yeah your instance isn’t selling your data or doing the creepy profile-mapping that meta does, but it’s important to be aware that this is very much a public forum
The API change and the general tone they took towards the community when they implemented it.
Where’s the, “I hate everything proprietary, and regularly check for foss alternatives option”?
My favorite mod @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website moved here but also fuck spez.
EDIT:
but… like… so — theoretically — what happens when someone looses miserably at bingo with a perfect score of 0/9? Asking for a friend… of a friend…
What’s Spez?

a narcissistic former reddit mod definitely made that bingo card
Mine isn’t there as an option, the internet was designed and built to be a free and open decentralised place. power, data, and control over the internet shouldnt be concentrated in a small number of corporations or governments. Instead, infrastructure, identity, content, and money should be spread across many independent nodes that no single entity controls. The fediverse is the return to what the internet always has been and always will be, just there was a small blip over the last decade or so where we lost our way.
This. I came here to say my option is not here.
Got banned from Vancouver subreddit for calling those antivaxxer flag-waving idiots, “flaggots”.
Then got permabanned for trying to evade the ban (using alt account). Every account I tried to make since gets banned.
All my round-about ways to use a third party app and just lurk also stopped working recently.
I still dont think calling those crazy fringers and convoy antivaxxers, “flaggots” is not that big a deal. I’m not insulting gay people, I love my homios!
Trump threatened greenland, had all the tech bros at his inauguration and one of them was high on ketamine and heiling, so I figured it was time to leave as many American social media platforms as possible.
The only one I still use is youtube and that’s in a logged out state and in a browser.
Can’t say I miss Facebook, Instagram and reddit. It’s been over a year and I barely think about it nowadays.
I have my issues with Lemmy, but you can filter out most of the bs so at this point it’s mostly memes, animal photography and other wholesome stuff that’s left in my feed. Life is good.
Top row, left column for me. I’ve actually been around since the third party app ban, but lost my first two accounts: VLemmy -> lemm.ee -> lemmy.zip
Same, but just lemm.ee to lemmy.zip.
Also switched over during the API drama, but I think only my first account (kbin.social) is lost. I did stop by lemmy.world for a bit, and think I also tried piefed.
None of these, really; I just wanted something open-source (I guess bottom-middle might qualify for that but I don’t plan to run anything).
Ppl are less insufferable here. Aside from an occasional tankie or Xi bot trying to convince me that having the same ruler for 15 years is good for you actually, we’re vibin’
15 years? I like your optimism. They were last seen discussing how to extend human life beyond 150 by organ transplants.
I hear this a lot but never see it. Not entirely sure how the whole thing works but I think you’d be happier on an instance like the one I’m on, where they’ve blocked the instance(s) hosting the worst of what you describe whilst still promoting a healthy amount of progressive/socialist values.
Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll consider
