On reddit

What are the best instances, in your opinion?

Also, what is 196?

That’s refreshing to hear actually. Reddit can be a pretty unfriendly place depending on what corners you spend your time. I think in today’s tumultuous and divisive political/cultural landscape we need neighborliness more than ever.

Her?

I got a 7 day platform ban for calling someone a virgin lmao

Just a couple years behind you brother 😩

Fuck u/spez

This works here right

I received two platform bans in the last few months over the most asinine things. Hadn’t gotten a single one in nearly 15 years up until now.

Jesus has it been 20 years now? I’m old

This is the exact catalyst that finally brought me over to Lemmy

This

Good deal. You’ve been very helpful in this thread, thanks.

Haha. No I’ve actually been genuinely interested in learning more about this for a little while now. I think this is the time for radicalization, if there ever was one. Still trying to figure out what that looks like for me personally. Thanks again for the resources—and I welcome any others, across any medium.

That makes a lot more sense! So can I move this account to a different instance or do I have to create new ones for each?

I appreciate the breakdown. I’ll crack into the reading material tomorrow and get back to you. Thanks!

So if I were in a tech one for instance, the difference between that and just joining r/technology is that it aggregates all the sublemmies/posts that fall within that category? To kind of create a one size fits all home feed?

Neoliberalism:

noun

Controlled opposition

So in case it wasn’t painfully obvious, I’m a total noob and don’t even know what lemmy.ee is haha. Do I need to make new accounts for each suffix or can I move it around—and what effect does my account being .ee vs .ml or whatever have on the experience?

Ha! I had no idea where I was, thanks for clearing that up.

Thanks!

Noted. Don’t fully grasp how this all works yet but I think I’m starting to get the idea. Seems like an evolution of Reddit.
