I want to watch the fediverse expand and grow, this seems like a perfect time to join as so many social networks are apparently wanting to milk their users for as much as they can

Also after I switched to linux last year it has given me a great appreciation for Open Source projects

Some people are really annoying about it or don’t see other good stuff, but the open-source movement is a serious force for freedom imo.

Yeah, it’s extremely refreshing to find online spaces that are non-extractive again where one can exist without entities trying to sell you something. You start to realize the awful way that most tech treats its users. We’ve been getting boiled alive, slowly.

I came for the drugs and hookers. So far, pretty disappointed.

To be early enough to not have to turn the lights off in my favorite Reddit communities.

Searched an alternative to Reddit after the news about API charges. Not because there shouldn’t be any payments but the way this is handled.

Also made good experience with Mastodon and like the philosophy of the fediverse.

Because Reddit plans to kill 3rd party clients. No sync no Reddit

If ljdawson could port Sync to Lemmy, that’d be awesome. Lemme is nice, but the app is kinda meh right now.

Or at least, it would be cool if they could open-source it if he doesn’t plan on continuing development. That way, it could be used as a basis for a new Lemmy app.
