Deleted my account years ago. 

  • the new home algorithm is filled with problematic subs, and is an opportunity for algorithmic propaganda
  • After forcing emails it’s been downhill
  • Needing to app for “incognito” is suspicious as hell
  • I do not like their leadership
  • The website runs like crap, and the redesign is not new at all. Every time I see the old design it’s a breath of fresh air and several hundred MB back to my OS. 
  • Lately all is filled with US critical posts that get deleted for no stated reason.

    Now they let you hide your history, making it harder to find the bot accounts.

    Literally the only purpose of doing that bs. A small percentage of users even went to the profiles to prove our case. That’s why they started that bullshit scout looking at post history makes you a loser stalker. Jokes on them i don’t give a fuck of some Nazi thinks I’m a stalker.

    The main reason I stay there are niche subreddits.

    Even bigger ones are dead here.

    I saw that 2-3year ago people try to copy paste stuff from reddit, but I see its discontinued.

    What happend?

    That was when Reddit killed their API for apps and started charging money for it. It lead to the first lemmy exodus.

    Around that time there was a lot of attempts to build community and some people felt it was useful to bootstrap lemmy with Reddit content.

    It mostly resulted in a lot of dead end posts and crap, so I think it got dialled back a lot. It was a lot of noise that people hated/defederated from.
