Reddit is a cesspool
Reddit when they started charging exorbitant prices for API access and killed off the third party app ecosystem.
RIP Apollo
one of the bigger waves that came here. i bet the official the reddit app still sucks that bad.
They have no incentive to improve it for users, the competition is gone. I think that was the primary goal.
that’s why so many people came here at once back then
I first migrated when the API price debacle hit, and failed. It just didn’t click with me and my ways.
Then later I tried again thanks to the r/buyeuropean movement. I found my app of choice (Summit) and got a hang of things much better with it.
However I still go check reddit every few days due to a handful of small niche subreddits that don’t exist here. They are luckily small enough to not be full of bots.
I came here before AI was a thing. I make new accounts every now and then, but I’ve been here for years.
Reddit when it started enforcing ID verification
They’re doing that now?
When I joined lemmy, chatgpt didn’t exist 👴
Reddit, but before AI was much of a thing.

Didn’t leave reddit, instagram and facebook because of AI, but because trump threatened to invade my country. The only american platform I still actively use is youtube.
The c/Asklemmy AI ridden banner is making the BLOCK COMMUNITY button much sexier.
