No, it is an open place where CCP shills and Nazis and good people can all say what they want, filter what they don’t, and communicate without shitty corporate overlords or trash mods having all the power.
Just being honest. It isn’t always a nice place, it is a fairly open and honest place. Not shitting on it, just not shining it. It is miles above reddit and the like.
i heard it about over the API thing like 2 years ago, then forgot it. got sitewide ban 99% of my accts meant for different subreddits, and came here, after i remember lemmy. im on LEMMY and on another forum(meant for people who evaded bans and got sitewide banned, and i noticed some got banned for no reason as well.
Honestly googled Reddit alternatives and the first search was from Reddit discussing Lemmy. Took a peek and now I’m here. I like Lemmy, just communities are a hit or miss due to inactivity.
Just signed up here. I had my account flagged for upvoting on Reddit. Needless to say I was POed but so far I’m liking it here
Made a lemmy account a while back and forgot about it. This shit made me switch instantly. Will keep upvoting Luigi posts until fuckers ban me.
Welcome friend. Lemmy is a nice place.

If you’re going to be negative about people welcoming newcomers, you don’t have to comment. I thought I left all that behind on reddit.

Putting “CCP shills” and Nazis together like that is a hell of a choice.
A bit redundant, I know, but it made a point.
i came after part of the reddit february ban wave.
How did you find Lemmy, out of curiosity? Seems like there aren’t a lot of Reddit recs for it yet.

Not that person, but I found out about lemmy from reddit. There are people talking about it when this kind of stuff comes up.

Agreed about the inactivity but hopefully more users make the transition as reddit continues to filter people out
I actually heard about it a while back after the whole API block but never made the transition over till now
