I know we pretty much all hated spez for all the shit he pulled, but a few weeks ago the tone towards reddit itself around here was more neutral. People liked it here on Lemmy a lot better, but people weren’t hating on the old place so much.

Recently I’m seeing this huuuuuuuge surge of just pure fucking hatred leveled at the site itself. Anyone else notice this or is it just me?

I mean, I was there because I thought it was alright. I hated spez for fucking it up and completely screwing his communities over. But I never hated reddit itself, and I still don’t. Otherwise I would’ve left a lot sooner.

Do you personally hate reddit? If so, why?

    I’ve hated Reddit for a while now and was originally happy to move to another platform but I’m already seeing lemmy start to show the same behaviors I hated Reddit for so I don’t think I’m gonna last long on here anyway

      Remember you can always just move to a smaller Instance and block the most annoying ones. Key difference here.

      Yeah, it was great with more content. Or was it - so much of it is just stupid articles written as clickbait or strongly opinionated pretending neutrality.

      And all the bad memes… really wish I could block communities my regex.

      But I kept visiting Reddit while Apollo was up, so… and there are good Content here as well.

      There are still more sane alternatives, like joining Beehaw and stick to local communities, or check out Tildes.
