Lemmy isn’t as big as Reddit yet, but I’m confident it will grow with time. I like the concept of the Fediverse and I’m starting to understand how it all fits together.

I left Reddit because of mods in certain subs I frequented. It seems like they just decide someone broke a rule and you get banned from several subs at once with no explanation. I never had any warnings or contact with the mod team until after they banned me. I appealed to the platform and was accused of harassment so I deleted my account and never looked back. I was honestly shocked when it happened.

I spent some time Googling and settled on Lemmy because it had a familiar feel to it. I chose Mastodon because of its similarity to the old bird site.

Elon has some nerve calling out someone for making money of bettering humanity. That’s the very definition of “the pot calling the kettle black”.

The minimum wage for servers is around $2 an hour. If we stop tipping, our servers won’t make enough money to survive. Restaurants claim that they can’t afford to pay a living wage and offer prices people are willing to pay. Yay capitalism.
