Transitioning from Reddit
Transitioning from Reddit
Been transitioning from Reddit, and Lemmy is such a godsend.
No more subreddit hoarding and mod abuse (mostly). The decentralization makes it nearly impossible to exploit and abuse.
I finally get to create a community that isn't a bunch of subreddits controlled by the same mod network. Working hard to build it up from scratch (and unapologetically taking inspiration from the good posts in each subreddit).
Is there a convenient way to find communities related to the subreddits I'm subscribed to, without manually searching for them? Looking for some kind of smart pseudo-import/export feature.
No mod abuse, you say?

LOL 😭
At least we can distance ourselves from that and create our own communities.
Some events like these still give me hope: https://lemmy.cafe/post/12094663
TL;DR
Admin abuse by the blahaj mods triggered mod abuse by the 196 mod, all because one popular troll in the .blahaj space demanded everyone call them "dragonfucker" instead of "they/them" ( I wish I was kidding )
The 196 community now is split between .blahaj and .world, depending on which internet janitor personally wronged them.
And maybe even that mod
