    To be fair, 40% of Lemmy is cross posts from Reddit, 20% is spam posts by one user across multiple communities, and the remaining 40% is divided evenly between actual content and posts complaining about Reddit

    All social media is trash, just different in what aspects they are trash in

    Reddit used to be a treasure trove of useful information. Now you can’t find shit on it other than bot posts and comments.

    Reaming shit advertisers is the only thing that made reddit worth using. They caught on and disabled comments so you can’t even do that.

    Probably the only website where I would click an ad just because I wanted to see scores of people saying stuff like “this company funds death squads and its ceo is a pedo” or “obvious crypto scam, I can’t believe anyone would actually fall for this” in the comments. People clowning on corporations at the very place they advertise is easily the funniest thing one could possibly do, and some of the comments were hilarious.
