It's amazing to me just how hassle-free it is to use Lemmy as opposed to reddit.

Rddit just feels like it's actively trying to get you to leave it.

Reddit is like the late Roman Empire. It looks fine on the outside, but it's corrupt all the way down, powered by unpaid labor, and the lead pipes are slowly killing everyone.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No, no, the pipes are fine (mostly). They have calcium buildup that prevents lead leeching.

The REAL major source of lead poisoning in the Empire is much stupider - knowingly making wine syrup in lead pots because the lead makes it taste sweeter. Despite knowing that lead is toxic af.

There's probably an apt comparison in that to Reddit as well.

That's late stage capitalism baby. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

All time high all time!

The latest annoyance is that they will AI-translate posts and stick those into search engines.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 month ago

Interesting. May I ask how?

Because with old.reddit and RES it really doesn't feel much different (apart from the vibes in the communities)

[-] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

Can't even visit certain subs without their shit app.

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I stopped using reddit on mobile, so I exclusively use the website. Might be different there

[-] selokichtli@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Yeah, old.reddit is like a dam for users that will flow with the fediverse sooner or later.

[-] Scrollone@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, I feel like the days of old reddit are numbered. We better be ready for the influx of new users when they close it.

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

Vibes are def getting worse the more folks flock in from reddit.

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 2 points 1 month ago

Bad moderation is still an issue here. Like allowing people posting pictures of text or low effort meme content on comms that aren't for memes

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

Feel free to create Meta posts about that.

And if you reasonable meta posts gets removed, post on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Sounds good, but from what you are saying, they are ignoring your reports

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

I guess we need more people to report it? I don't know what their admin UI looks like, but I imagine posts with more reports sort to the top?

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

What might happen is that mods ignore you because they don't care, and admins don't want to interfere with community level moderation
