I used Apollo, got the lifetime membership, about 6 or 8 months later it gets shut down

So say we all!

I say hateful things to normies for the luls

The 3rd party app-ocalypse made me create an account here but it was the reddit ads that eventually made me quit the Reddit app. At some point I realised more of my feed was taken up by autoplay video ads than actual content. The slow decline in intelligent conversations really accelerated after they killed the apps too.

So far I like it here, there's less content and that can be a bit disappointing but it's probably healthier that I can't scroll endlessly. It's also nice to feel like your posts don't get buried under a torrent of other content the moment you make them.

Same, but just lemm.ee to lemmy.zip.

Oh nice. Thats a cool project.

...its the cheapest expensive hobby i swear. You get one device and then keep getting more and more.

I score like, 6 of these.

You don’t have one for “Longtime lurker who used reddit for their daily dose of catching-up-with-the-world but found that the r/all was increasingly showing reality tv discussion subs that they had no interest in”.

I was banned for goading the Whitehouse Reddit into nuclear War with Iran so we could all stop seeing press conferences of Caroline Levitt.

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.

Just a reminder the fediverse isnt only lemmy 🫤

Yeah, they finally just killed r/all completely, which is why I'm here. I fucking hate how reddit became this corporate cesspool. It used to be just a regular cesspool with some content I liked.

None of those, I just heard about this on r/degoogle and came over.

I agree about the content and really think that it is healthier this way, too. But I also think that the content here is somehow less negative.
And as you say, posts do not get buried. I am way more engaged here because of that and had a lot more interactions.

Old reddit for me was the last straw. time to move on. if we don't make a stand and move elsewhere, the status quo remains.

It's been three years so I can't remember, but does reddit not have a way to block certain subs from r/all (at a user level)?

A key part of shaping your lemmy experience is that you can just block any community you aren't interested in, while still getting the benefits of an All feed.

I dont know if it's bots or culture or whatever but the comments on reddit just slid into repetitive blither over a handful of years. This is the internet so I dont expect all interactions to be thought-provoking prose, but I do expect people to at least have their own thoughts. Here on Lemmy, for example, I can find that good ol' home grown, individualistic blither. Just the way the internet intended.

I still have RIF installed on principle. I'm still angry about that

Paranoia over AI accounts. Bots. Bots. Bots. Astroturfing.

1, 2, and 7 for me. Map it like a phone dialer.

But honestly, 3 was never in my mind lol. I hardly know big redditors to the point they left and went here

I used to rarely, if ever, actually log in to my reddit account. Reddit used to have a good set of defaults and I had a list of my favourites in my head. Then I started using RES to block some of the subreddits I did not want to see. Eventually, it got so bad that maintaining the RES blocklist became a hassle.
Lemmy has much better defaults and this time I’m actually making an effort to engage with people.

neither. the privacy and degoogled posts are better cause of the lower level of auditing.

Ah right, RES, plus all the apps had their own options. Man, I bit killing third party apps really cut the features for people.

No bingo for me :(

Only two somewhat fit and don't allign with the free space.

I will never use the official app. It's just so bad. With the API changes one month ago I can't use rif anymore so I'm here.

Does wishing death on Elon Musk and Trump count as a good reason, or a 'good' reason?

Hey, your comment is still up. Looks like a good reason to me. Thank the gods the lemmings agree with you

Thats technically the first box, when Reddit walled off their API to third party vendors all the good apps were killed... kinda. I'm still using Boost, they use to proxy for Reddit but now they implemented Lemmy for the past 4 years.

Let's all be grateful for Elon Musk! Bringing people to the Fediverse is the biggest thing he has accomplished in his life and that's the only thing he did on his own.

Lemm.ee to Lemmy.world

It's like a frustrated old lady in the church basement on a Friday night ... I can't get bingo. I can almost get bingo twice. But no luck.

I guess number 9: Inciting violence includes against yourself too, apparently.

Technically I got banned from multiple subs by auto-editting every comment I ever made to advertise lemmy, then to warn people that they're being used to train ai and finally a probably useless attempt to poison the ai's data with nonsense velociraptor meme-speak.

That was after they walled off their api and forgot blind people exist (their mobile app didn't have any accessibility features, probably still doesn't). Shitheads.

I have a homelab and it wants to R U N

Top left for me. It was the clear sign I needed to see that Reddit was on the fast entshitification route.

Fuck spez, I wanted to try something new.

I didn't get a bingo, but;

• Fuck Spez (obviously)
• Bots and AI (loathing both, even and especially the constant automoderator spam)
• try something new (and it's going well!)

I don't understand, old Reddit still works for me?

Yeah, they finally just killed r/all completely

It's still up on old reddit

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.

Same. The moment Apollo stopped working is the moment I stopped using reddit

Fuck ****.

I know I don't have to censor things on Lemmy, but I don't want to be rude anyway.

Apollo for Reddit died

Shouldnt the top middle be the free space?

I guess I'm neutral good. Wait, is this not an alignment chart?

Me, too. Not even mad. Christian earned it.

This. I came here to say my option is not here.
