  • Subscribe to the communities you like, then switch to “Subscribed” view, just like on Reddit. The front page is what it is, an honest /r/all – on Reddit it was mostly porn, and after some retooling mostly low-effort meme subs. But that’s exactly what “Subscribed” is there for!!

    At least you’re not advocating to harshly monitor/ban/disallow community creation, like some others already did, basically treating the whole instance like an uber-strict subreddit of its own.

    Instead, it’s easy: Subscribe. Then switch to Subscribed. If you want more communities, look at a list, or switch to All again.


  • also don’t block other instances too much! I mean as long as they are bot servers that threaten the health of the network, then you have to get rid of them of course. but way too many people are getting their panties in a bunch about content they don’t like, and immediately resort to the nuclear option of defederation, which is actually hurting the network and effectively splitting the user base. all these things should be blocked on a user level (by blocking specific communities, not whole instances!).










  • Ich bin den meisten hier einen Schritt voraus, mein 14 Jahre alter Reddit-Account wurde mir vor einem Monat samt allen Alts permanently suspended, für Ban Evasion (die ist eher unabsichtlich passiert). Daten runterladen oder überschreiben geht also nicht, und nur Lauern war auch frustrierend.

    Mir kommt der Zusammenbruch von Reddit also gerade recht, abgesehen davon war es ohnehin schon lange an der Zeit, mit der Masse kommt der Niedergang, ist auf jeder Plattform so, und Reddit hat sich zum Ende schon immer öfter so angefühlt wie Facebook.

    Hier freue ich mich über das Gefühl des Aufbrauchsbruchs, wie damals zu den besten Zeiten des Internet!
