Because the old Reddit site isn’t bogged down with useless avatars, NFTs, and 10 GB of JavaScript.

The term you’re looking for is enshittification.

And nothing of value was lost.

Fedora with Gnome on my Framework laptop. Before that it was Mac OS X/macOS on a MacBook Pro. And before that a variety of shitty Windows versions on equally shitty equipment.

It’s been a bit of a learning curve, but so far I like it. I’m honestly hoping for a Lemmy Enhancement Suite that adds features like infinite scrolling and automatically opening links in new tabs.

Not that I was a prolific poster on Reddit, but I’ve been making a conscious effort to use Lemmy more than Reddit. Hopefully by the time Reddit finally shits the bed for good, I’ll be off of it.

The thing that drives me up the wall about this entire thing is that even if he’s indicted, even if he’s convicted, even if he’s sentenced to prison ahead of the 2024 presidential election, there is enough of the electorate that will wave that all aside (it’s the “woke” DOJ or a liberal judge or a witch hunt or whatever) and STILL vote for him. Utterly baffling.
