New to Lemmy. Why did you choose Lemmy when there are bigger alternatives such as 4chan and reddit.

Just left reddit because I got tired of moderation and I do not agree with political views over all. I never tried 4chan because I heard it's messed up and supposedly inject maleware on visitors like porn sites do.

As a person new to Lemmy, I just wanna know why you chose here and what you like/ dislike about there.

  • I chose federated networks, not Lemmy per se. Right now I use:

    • Firefish (Mastodon with a better kit)
    • Kbin (Developing Lemmy alternative w/o problematic devs)
    • Pixelfed (Instagram alternative, good except export tools lacking)

    Federated is awesome because its more open and encourages choice, and I actually feel like there are friends to be made.
