Like a lot of the new users here I too am a former Redditor. I was on Reddit for 15 years, it was my main source of news and information. I didn’t agree with many of the changes to reddit but kept on, till recently when I learned the app I’d been using “Infinity” would no longer work, I guess that was the final straw, but as the title suggests I’m glad. I started looking for other sources of information and entertainment which led to lemmy and the fediverse. I also found other content creators on platforms like patreon, substack, discord, mastodon,that I may not have found otherwise if I was still on Reddit. Just felt like sharing, thank you for reading this, hope you all have a wonderful day.
That’s just the background federation-radiation emanating off of the html math the open source guys put into place when building Lemmy. I’m the only non-programmer here but they’ll back me up and confirm, for sure. Something about how blockchain and the cloud create a cyber container when enough githubs connect to the activity pub rss feeds if I’m following it right.
