joining the fediverse to bitch about reddit is the same as going on a date, and spending the whole night talking about your ex

For real. It's like getting a new job and say "wow I love how great this is, my old job sucked." Then kinda laughing at how bad it was then and how good it is now.

Asking people to immediately forget about a platform they (at least in my case) have spent over a decade on in a matter of days is naive. People are going to commiserate about it, we're human.
