I gave up on reddit when they banned 3rd-party API access. I use Boost for Lemmy so it looks like reddit minus the karma whores, bots, and general shittiness.

I suppose some reddit users might find the distributed nature of the fediverse too complicated, but honestly I'm not sure if those folks would be much of a benefit to us here.

    I got permanently banned for reposting the Alex Peretti shooting to bring awareness to it, reddit was constantly removing posts that day. I had my account for 17 years. Then they also banned my alt account that I had for 16 years because of "ban avoidance" - the digital fingerprint they had for me was tied to both accounts apparently.

    Fuck reddit.

    onbording through apps is good enough that users might not even notice a difference, the main hurdle is understanding the interconnectivity of instances and them actually leaving their jail
