A Reddit post promoting the Fediverse that actually gained traction (and Reddit deleted the top comment for promoting Lemmy) (www.reddit.com)

I haven't seen Reddit give so much attention to the Fediverse in a long time. Maybe we can help them and answer some questions.

They also make you think lemmy is like voat or other right wing stuff when the user base here is more like reddit when it was good, far less controversial

A few pointers

The worst part of browsing reddit imo, you cant block a subreddit, you downvote posts, it shows up more, no way to hide it from any feed, my subscribed feed showed me tons of subs not relevant to me that I wasn't subbed to after they made the api changes and got rid of the other apps. It felt like they wanted me to open the app and be upset about something everyday when I was just trying to look at what I was subscribed to. (3d, animation, edm, etc. not subbed to any of the main subs, would still see them)
