At least that’s my calculation right now
I didn’t look back after moving here. The only thing where Reddit still excels is its old content that you bump into when searching stuff on Google and the presence of official corporate accounts/ subreddits.
speaking of searching stuff, how does lemmy work in that space?
Like would I ever find this comment if I search it on Google?
“Alibaba DQC Matrix Peanut Butter”
There is a search engine being developed specifically for Lemmy for just this kind of thing: search-lemmy.com
I went back by accident by following a search result, and was still logged in. Had a notification. It was a reply to a comment I’d made about a month prior, asking a question. In the comment I even attempted to clarify that it was a genuine question with no judgement attached, and I got a couple answers at the time.
Anyway, found myself back on Reddit with this belated comment reply. The person went on a whole rant related to my question, didn’t answer it of course, but just went off on one accusing me of nefarious motives.
It’s weird to think back on how stressful it was to interact over there for fear of being misinterpreted and drawing out the crazies. If something like that happens here I just block them and go on with my day safe in the knowledge that the nice folks have them massively outnumbered. And hence my nearly 2000 comments here over two accounts in the space of about six weeks…oh my.
