That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. Here’s more of it: This week, Reddit has been telling protesting moderators that if they keep their communities private, the company will take action against them. Any actions could happen as soon as this afternoon.

I think only linux users moved over here... maybe

Windows user checks in. But I've got to admit, just as with Mastodon, the sign-up process (and finding communities across servers) might scare some people that are not as familiar with computers as most people that are on here now.

Honestly, signing up was a horrible experience.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I signed up yesterday. It was not bad at all. No blood oaths or anything.

It took me a few tries over multiple days to sign up successfully

What app are you using?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Connect for lemmy and honestly it actually seemed to be working faster than the mobile browser somehow. Not to mention looks better. Also downloaded Jerboa and will try that tomorrow, give each a full day.

Ya that's what I'm on and It's been so buggy for me.

Other apps are saying lemmy.world is using an outdated server version.

¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Part of me acknowledges that buggy social media is good as I'll be less inclined to use it

lemmy.world is outdated, they're having issues updating. Next attempt should be at today (July 1st) 2000 CET I think

I'm using an iMac right now.
