YOU HAVE MADE A BLOOD PACT WITH WORLD.

ML HATES YOU NOW

This is even after blocking instances, communities, keywords and some personal ublock rules.

That’s so much extra work

Big same lol

Boiling it down to 3 things:

1. Content Scale & Variety - Lemmy has a lot of content but it’s very tech/political heavy. It doesn’t have much to offer outside of that domain. Meanwhile, there’s a whole shitposting subreddit dedicated to an NFL conference – I don’t even closely follow professional American football, but it’s glorious.
2. User Experience Friction - You can’t just sign up, you need to pick a server. You’ve already lost a significant amount of people in that step.
3. User Base - There’s nice folks on here, but some really sour the experience for the rest of us by being straight up hostile if we don’t agree on every little detail.
