    I agree and haven't returned but lemmy hasn't hit critical mass yet.... Like I don't recall a post with over a hundred replies. Reddit used to have over a thousand on every reply on the first page.

    I've never considered that a limitation.

    You only need one other person in addition to yourself, for a good discussion.

    If anything, here I'm finding I actually get replies, because my comment didn't drown among a hundred others.

      I didn't get banned, I just can't login anymore. All browsers confirm username and pass are correct, but reddit says they are not.
      They really don't like critics. No calls for violence, veiled or otherwise. The wheels are coming off that country quickly.

      I got banned for saying we should punch Nazis, and calling Musk a cunt.

      I regret nothing.

        Same, once they violated certain principles, it was clear the site was dead. We need to do our best to build lemmy into something. It'll take years.

          This story compelled me to finally commit to using Lemmy.

              Tbh I've decided I can live with less and less of this. I'll never go back to the giant ad covered spaces. But if this doesn't pickup or even dies, meh

                How many of those thousands are actual good comments though? Last time I was there, I swear the majority of comments were from bots reposting the same comments that were in previous threads. It felt peak dead-internet.

                It is worse, I was convinced I was having discussions with AI multiple times. It seemed to me that they were using some subs for AI to post content and then interact with human and AI. It is another laboratory to train their AI.

                        One of the most recurring things I see here is the mods are at wits end with Reddit Admins again. They've given up a lot of leverage in doing another blackout, but they really need to ask themselves what they have to gain being unpaid volunteers for a website clearly working against its users.

                              That's what every company/organization I've ever worked for has done. Oh, this intranet tool works okay and no one is complaining. Lets redo it in a "modern" style... (adds whitespace and truncates every meaningful text field so you have to mouseover and scroll for miles to read any of them even on a 4k display).

                              I think part of why Reddit succeeded initially was because it had some very KEY strengths/advantages. I would say that the old design and the URL scheme are part of that. It fit any screen nicely from phone though 4k TV, portrait displays, whatever. It was a simple design, but extensible by custom CSS and if you knew what you wanted, you could skip straight there by typing r/ or u/ in your URL. Enough reminiscing, if old reddit is gone,I don't know if I'll even be able to use reddit at all for anything. New reddit is one of those interfaces, like twitter, that never really made sense or worked for me. I'm just a Lemmy guy I guess.

                                    I feel like as an A’s fan. The same thing happened to Reddit. Owners turned it into a shit hole.

                                          I used to help out in r/Botdefense

                                          The amount of them was ridiculous and only because the makers made another bot to report them to use (with stats), could we even keep up. That was before greddy piggy spez shut down API access and now? Ewww
