A bit, yes. I’d been on Reddit for over a decade, and grew attached to the site and the many different communities that were there. I could find a subreddit for nearly anything.

But over time, one could see it begin to change. It started with “new” reddit, then NFTs, and it all felt like it started to move away from what it began as. It also became more toxic (though this may be more due to users than the site itself).

But now, we can plainly see that Reddit/Spez is all about profit and greed, nothing else. Gotta get that IPO for shareholders, right?

Though Lemmy is still small, I’m excited to see what it can become.
