Joan Westerberg has been doing great work on the Fediverse. I pasted this link in the one sub I miss r/idiocracy:

My post was really good — I used Idiocracy speech to get my scros to join me in LEMMY and not only was the post rejected but I earned a temporary ban at Reddit.
At this point there isn’t even a point in going back to leave a breadcrumb trail to be followed.
Agreed - Even before this, the only thing I really used reddit for was to search. It’s unfortunate that Reddit is really the only search option with a decent chance of surfacing the information I want to know - most search results if you don’t add “Reddit” at the end are AI slop, ads, or AI generated listicles.
