Capitalism.

Capitalism is like cutting off your wings because you believe the reduced weight will make you fly higher.

If you acknowledge it, you're already smarter than the majority of the Reddit user base

I wouldn't worry. Those are the people that joined Reddit late (in the last few years) and came from other social media platforms (like Facebook). I think Lemmy is safe for a long while at least.

I won't go back. I'm a full lemming now.

Same here. It's already gotten sucky, and it's only going to get worse.

If you want to know the future of Reddit, look at Facebook.

I joined in the last few days. Seems like this site has much better content. Less bots and reposts. Plus, the user base seems a lot more intelligent in general at this point.

Anyone else having issues trying to create a community? I input everything and get the loading symbol but it never goes past that, no matter how long I leave it.

That seems wildly overpriced for that player. How are Chelsea robbing Arsenal blind like this? I mean, his record in the prem league isn't exactly fantastic. I sure hope he proves me wrong.

I'm a masochist. So, obviously I support Arsenal.

I tended to use Reddit for smaller niche communities, many of which I do not see here yet. For example Eldin Ring, Ghost of Tsushima, Hot Sauce, Gifrecipes, Rings of Power, PTCGL. It will be nice when these can be created and have enough people to make it interesting but it's not there yet.
