I think Twitter is dumb so I never had an “oh shit I also think Elon is dumb and need to leave” moment.
I now definitely relate to what people went through, as Reddit was my single online “social” presence, and I can’t in good conscience continue to support them in any way, shape, or form because of the blatant shady attacks against developers.
All that aside, I am super impressed with lemmy (and the fediverse) and kind of bummed it took me until “the big migration” to look into it. I already prefer lemmy 1000% to Reddit after only a couple of days.
I would also MUCH RATHER donate to random cool folk keeping uptime on lemmy instances than, something like, pay reddit monthly for no ads.
On average, almost, but not quite
