    Yep, thats the plan anyways. I believe in free speech and, as a former Apollo and Joey user, I have zero tolerance for bullshit companies whose entire goal is to turn my words into training tools for AI in their pursuit of a multi billion dollar IPO.

    If they want me back, they can pay me.

    That being said, its looking like this transition may take awhile. Im not even sure if my ev, worldnews and other subs exist here yet.

    But, its exciting times! Reminds me of the first time I posted to slashdot news back in 1999 and reddit back in 2012.

    Edit - I also have a mastadon account, Salty Muskrat can eat it too.

    99% yes, effective July 1. The 1% is the Ukraine war daily thread on World News. I monitor it while logged out.

    Not yet. Sadly the small community’s that had me hooked on Reddit in the first place have yet to make it here (HFY my beloved). I also find the current mobile clients a bit jank (in comparison to Apollo) but I hope that situation will get better with time. Anyhow fuq the 1st party Reddit client, I ain’t touching that shit. Apollo till it breaks!

    I was but the loss of Beehaw already is kinda disheartening. They had some really great communities built up

    On my phone, yes. I intend to still use old.reddit on my PC in order to keep up with my favorite communities.

    Yes, I just recently created my Lemmy account and had to answer a question like “why did you choose this username”.

    What did you answer, OP?

    After leaving reddit I realize how negative it was. Only thing I miss is searching up the answer you’re looking for that aren’t paid ads, but I feel like lemmy can be a viable replacement in time.

    I’m currently about 90% Lemmy, 10% Reddit for general topics, mostly still hanging on to Reddit for specific games that I haven’t found out here yet.

    My third eldest, Larissa, she was talking about this just last week. She is very smart, I’ll give her that, because she was the first in the family to go to university. And she passed with distinctions. So we’re all quite proud of her.
