I don’t want to advertise Reddit, but I gotta say they do have an onion site.
Although… they fucked it up with rate limiting. Yes, IP-based rate-limiting on TOR network…

Oh, no, this isn’t just about making an account. They won’t even let you log in.

Because spez was being a dip shit. Other than that, yeah, idklol
To spread the word about the ultimate beverage: WATER
so… what is it? is it really safe to try?
but it’s so dangerous; everyone who drinks it dies. lol
you must only consume piss
No one whoever drank piss died because of it
dont fall for Big Phallus propaganda
This is just one of Big Soda’s lies. Everyone who had drank water and died, had also breathed air. Oxygen is also toxic, so I think, that conclusion is obvious.
Big water lobby in this thread rn. /s
Haha makes me think about the old HydroHomies subreddit and what it was originally called

Saw the whole fiasco of Reddit unraveling and then went to Lemmy. Seriously fuck Spez and how he treated the developer of Apollo.
Found out about it from Reddit, and it seemed better in several ways, so I tried it out.
More friendly, for one.
I’m a bit less extreme about it than many here. But, in short, back when Reddit made sweeping API changes it immediately gave me ‘the ick’ and so I sought less centralised platforms. Lemmy is the closest thing I’ve found to people just hosting their own message boards like back in the early internet.
I’m a big fan of decentralized platforms and I love the concept of ActivityPub.
That said, I still use Reddit and have recently started to really enjoy BlueSky, so I’m not militantly against the corporate platforms or anything.
Finally, I just like the natural selection things like Lemmy and Mastodon have for those who are naturally more techy and nerdy.
Because Reddit is a shit hole from which no intelligent life will ever escape.
But we escaped…
I’m afraid it means, that you are stupid.
all of us
Corporate greed puts me off.
Grew up on enthusiast BBS, Lemmy is like a bunch of them are linked up.
Dislike for profit internet as it must inevitably lead to enshitification, just never had a term for that in the past :)
I don’t have an issue with “toxicity” as i just ignore it, like a dog shit on the side walk. I prefer the “BBS/Usenet format” to Twitter like Mastodon though I am over on Masto and had been there for many years. I don’t participate much though.
For BSD and Unix community
I was here before the Reddit API kerfuffle, because I care about an open and decentralized internet.
Found the hipster
Same! I was hoping for a while that there would be a fediverse version of reddit. And it’s succeeded beyond my wildest hopes. Other than the misinformation, but I suppose that’s a problem everywhere.
i dont have anywhere else to go
For an actual community. I was tired of Discord and Reddit.
It started with a distaste for how Reddit was treating developers and moderators, but now I genuinely believe in the future of the fediverse.
