    Damn still angry about that API?

    It’s funny seeing the corpos implode because they had record growth, which means nothing can match it in the coming quarters and therefore they’re going to have to find someway to meet their stupid investor demands.

    The only exemption is Twitter, which is just imploding because Elon is a dumbass and not because of greed.

      Today is my first day on Lemmy because of the API thing lol. I’ve been on reddit for over a decade, always used RES/apolo. res still works but theres not really an option on iphone mobile. I will never pay for reddit and I hate ads with a passion, so here I am!

        Welcome to Lemmy. It’s a bit smaller than Reddit, and we’re not as content oriented as Reddit, but we have more engagement.

          Its exactly what i’m looking for so far! Its hard to recreate that magic that reddit had in the 2000-2010s but this is decent!

            I was a bit scared at first due to the lack of content but: 1. There is content on Lemmy, and 2. It’s up to us to create this content.

            I don’t miss Reddit so far.

              I’m on the same boat. I was on reddit for over a decade, and switched to lemmy when they shutdown Apollo but so far, I’m liking lemmy more n more everyday

          It’s not even just the engagement but the quality of engagement seems vastly superior by every measure.
