Ooohhh a venture capitalist social media platform! I wonder how and in how many overly creative and putrid ways that site will try and fuck me over, inside and out.
Yeah, I really hate how the Lemmy corporation abuse their users. Yesterday they released the new Lemmy subscription, Lemmy Plus, which removes their gazillion ads and their other shenanigans. Crazy stuff. Using the official Lemmy client is also pretty annoying, I miss using Lemmy third party apps. Overall I really wish there was an alternative free and open-source platform to escape to. Would be cool if it was also federated so no one is truly in control of it
It’s more a reference to the same type of posts, the same users, the same comments. Hell most people here can’t even use lemmy terminology. Most here still use Reddit speak.
Really, how many people came here with no relationship to reddit? Why does this place even exist in the first place? It takes quite a bit of time for a culture to evolve. The reddit mannerisms were always going to be a given.

Yeah, hells no
Wasn’t a lot of their tomfoolery why people relocated to Reddit to begin with?
Yes, people despised the changes they’d made and reddit was a breath of fresh air at the time.
It’s the same as here, and Reddit. All these sites are the same.

What is reddit speak?

Lemmy has VC funding?
I actually think the lack of funding means Lemmy doesnt have the same incentives to enshitify itself.
Lemmy did have some funding for anyone curious but the good kind.
Edit: It is ongoing and tied to feature milestones.
