  • asklemmy Ask Lemmy After the blackout...
    Jump
  • CheshireSnake CheshireSnake 1 year ago 100%

    Already deleted all my reddit accounts and uninstalled Joey (TPA). I'll be honest and say that I won't completely stop going to reddit, but it will be pretty rare and just as a spectator. I won't be participating anymore. There's just too much information there right now and there are some subs i follow that probably won't migrate here.

    I agree. I'm on Arch and EOS and whenever I need a guide outside the wiki, 9.5/10 times it has instructions for apt. Makes me want to go back to Mint/Debian sometimes. Lol

    We should move. Even if we did a longer blackout, the admins can just replace the mods of the bigger subs and ignore the smaller ones. Even if the blackout is effective, they will pull something like this again.

    I've lost trust in them. I'm not going back except maybe for information if I really need to.

    I saw that. That's honestly stupid, imo. I mean, they can still track you and force feed you ads. Sure you can have an adblocker but that's the same for mobile.

    Idk why they'd do that, tbh.

    This is why I'm hoping people stay even after the blackout. Lemmy has potential but a big part of it is the community. I already like it here and I've seen it grow despite being here for only a week. It's honestly amazing to watch.

    Jump
  • CheshireSnake CheshireSnake 1 year ago 100%

    I mean, reddit's CEO used to mod that sub. Reddit and redditors were still fine after it blew up. Why are there different standards? The sub may have been banned already, but I doubt spez has changed much. Reddit admins have gotten away with a lot like editing comments, refusing to ban certain subs until there was media coverage, etc. Personally, I haven't encountered any censorship due to political affiliations (yet). And if it happes, I'll change instances.

    They don't control the fediverse just as much as they can't control which instance I join/create.

    Honestly, Jerboa in alpha is already better than the official reddit app for me. It's no TPA reddit app, but the number of contributors (in github) has risen by a lot so I'm expecting/hoping development will pick up and it'll get better fast.

    I appreciate the community the most in here. They've been very welcoming and minimal, if any, toxicity.

  • CheshireSnake CheshireSnake 1 year ago 100%

    Like someone has said, we're in a privacy-oriented sub so it's natural (expected even) to expect the hate. Edge/MS really is bad in terms of privacy. So I get the hate.

    With that said, privacy concerns aside, I have to agree that its reputation is worse than it really is. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it, but my standard was IE so it wasn't really saying much lol. It's getting bad with unnecessary features, though.

    As for being better than FF... well, of course in terms of privacy FF is still better imho. However, I rely on chromium-based browsers for work. Some internal sites I use for work simply don't play well with FF. I do have Brave, but I sometimes use Edge as well.

    Is there a good chromium browser anyone can recommend? Is Brave the best privacy-wise? Vivaldi?

    Jump
  • CheshireSnake CheshireSnake 1 year ago 100%

    I agree. It's nice to get feedback but in the end your experience with something will probably be the major reason for your decision.

    With regards to the political stuff... idk. I understand where people are coming from, I really do, but my stay here hasn't been tainted by political stuff from either side. I'll try to judge them by their actions. They've been very objective as far as I can see so I have nothing against them.

    Lemmy works for me primarily because of Jerboa.

    I didn't see those. My bad!

    Privacy is non-existent on reddit anyway, just because lemmy is imperfect there doesn't mean it's any worse than reddit, and this is a public forum, there's no privacy anyway.

    Completely agree. Just look at reddit's TOS. They own your data. Unfortunately, it still doesn't stop people from raising it as if reddit is a bastion of privacy and security.

    Tildes is the only other alternative that I know besides lemmy. It's more focused on discussion, as you probably know. Personally, though, I doubt it can scratch my reddit itch. I do enjoy discussions, but I also need my "nonsense stuff" fix like memes. I do like what they're trying to do. I think they're a good complementary site to lemmy if someone is ditching reddit altogether.

    Just discovered this community and I hope it grows. I play D2R, POE, Grim Dawn, and Last Epoch. I'm still unsure if I'll get Diablo 4 because of the price. Do you guys think it will ever go on sale? What are you guys playing rn? If there's any LE players, what sites do you go to for builds besides maxroll?
