I haven’t really disconnected from r/nz yet and I guess I’m hanging out at both, just looking out for what interests me. What would shift me this way more permanently is if more content and engagement pops up here to keep me more occupied, and/or if the moderation of r/nz drops to levels so bad (as has been threatened by the mods) that I can’t bear it any longer.

I mean, I know that Lemmy is here now whereas I didn’t before, so I’ll probably keep coming back even if I drift away at times. I also like the more independent and federated model that avoids one single commercial entity being in control. It’s much more like how the internet used to work in the olden days, before a small number of mega-corps sought to pull everyone into their very restrictive dumbed down siloed universes for the purpose of selling users as a product.
