Welcome! Piefed/Lemmy are closer to Reddit than Mastodon is to Twitter. Feel free if you have any questions!

It is lol. Reddit is a forum disguised as social media, something which does not require complicated recommendation systems to feel complete. Hence lemmy/piefed feel more usable in my opinion.

the great part about all this is you still being able to interact with people on mastodon. killer feature

That was the big one, but there was something else smaller last year.

Woah, I haven't heard about this. Are those temp bans on specific subreddits or a site-wide ban for not being pro-Trump?

Ah thanks for the clarification, I never looked that closely at what exactly they are, there's some overlap

Happy to help, more are coming 😁

In my experience reddit administration moderates dishonestly, violating posts not against the rules because of subjects like Israel,. Moderators there are more than you can shake a stick at they run the gamut.

But the administration is quite dishonest, and will become more and more so.

don't forget, being sexually harassed by a mod and then warning people about the mod will get you banned too
