    I don’t feel good about being on mainstream social media any more. Any time I spend on Reddit or YouTube is minimal and with a sense of distrust.

    I’ve been on lemmy for a few months now and it’s grown since I joined and grows more every day as people hear about it.

    Never looking back.

      What pine-person meant was:

      Welcome! Many of us here are capable of greeting new peers without going on a pedantic tangient.

      So anyway.

      Welcome!

      It does feel much better to participate here. Particularly after blocking a few specific users.

      You do realize Reddit always was and has been a forum right? Understanding the difference between social media and forums is an “early use”learning moment.
