Well to hell with Reddit anyways. We’re all here because we all were on thin ice that broke, so welcome :) hope you find the community and discussion you’re looking for here. In my mind, Reddit seems to have enacted their version of martial law with the admins forcing mod teams’ hands. The company has lost site of the true spirit of the site. They are planting in mods that will bow down and do as they’re told.

Do you mean you made posts about switching to lemmy on those subreddits and the mods permabanned you?

Haha that’s okay! Thanks for the suggestion. I know my instance is not defederated. It could also just be user error, I’ll mess around in browser a bit more and see what I can find out

When I search in Memmy and in browser, only lemmy communities show up, I went through all the app setting but I don’t see anything that could change this. Any ideas?

In Memmy, click “search”, type in the community name, and click “search communities”

The cool thing is you don’t even have to type the whole community name. I was able to just put “accident” as my search and it came up. So click the comm and then click the subscribe button

Yeah hard pass on the subscription based auto pilot. Everything is going to be subscription based soon enough.

People get complacent and resist change.

I agree. A part of me just wants to see Reddit completely death spiral because that means, people finally stood together for something and made a huge difference. That doesn’t seem to happen in my country so seeing it happen to Reddit gives me some hope that people do actually stand up for their beliefs somewhere!
