    Powerless to change Reddit, yes, but not powerless to find a new community!

    To everyone hanging in the fediverse, I just want to say, I am proud of all of you!

      NGL I’ve found the communities on here to be much more genuine. It feels like things are less manipulated, like there are less bots and less advertising companies trying to do guerrilla marketing.

      Might just be that these communities are small enough that such things are not worth the time of those who would do such things.

      At this point I think I’ll always just migrate to smaller communities as time goes on.

        I think so long that the community is on an invite-basis community, it raise the cost of botting the website much higher than other platforms so it can de-incentivize them from gaming the platform.
