there is a bit of learning curve.

I found a couple of things :

  • if you go to your preferences, you can get a more famililar reddit look and feel, by adding the top bar, and a few other tweaks.
  • i think that ultimately it wont (shouldn't) matter what 'window' you look through into the fediverse - correct me if i'm wrong. I like kbin a lot, but i', looking at beehaw. i was asked not to join lemmy.ml because of server load issues.
  • i'm not sure how mastodon fits. i guess that's a federated app - but is seems entirely seperate.

i got a lifetime ban on a 15y account. Why ? Some guy said I couldnt read, so i said Go outside fatso. And that was that.

economically logical perhaps, but that's all. Nothing logical about more work in old age.

so far so go. i'm an old fart so familiarisation takes longer, and is easily forgotten ! 15 years on reddit before getting a permaban for saying "go outside fatso". Not my proudest moment, but there you go.

reddits downfall is multifaceted, but its certainly not helped by career Mods, who mod 20,30,50 different subs and network extensively.
