I want to stay on Lemmy because it's small, cool, and new. Reddit has shown zero repentance for their mistreatment of the community, and the rampant defeatism and pessimism of its users in response to the blackout is nauseating. People who are angry at having their routine distractions disrupted, and are entirely apathetic to things. Not me. I'll take the extra jump even though it's hard. I'm tired of tech companies doing whatever they want with impunity because they have a monopoly on their corner of social media.

I'll pop in occasionally on reddit, with adblock and without interacting with things just to see if there's any changes. But when it comes to engaging with content, I'll bring my attention elsewhere, Lemmy for the time being.
