This definitely applies to Lemmy as well

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 15 points 19 hours ago

Why all these Reddit memes today? Did they have another meltdown over there or what?

[–] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 32 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Can we all just move on from Reddit? I feel like the constant bitterness toward it only brings a negative attitude to Lemmy.

Personally, I have Reddit completely blocked on my network and the only way to “access” it is to redirect to a Redlib instance. I don’t really care to hear about it anymore.

But how will I find the solution [Comment deleted] from [User deleted] for my obscure software problems???

[–] twinnie@feddit.uk 26 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Lemmy isn’t a whole lot better. There’s still stuff you have to block straight away.

The worst part is, after you block all the foreign language communities, all the Linux, all the loli anime, there's very little left.

[–] ohshit604@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

all the Linux

Unafuckingcceptable.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago

So much anime feet.

I thought oh maybe i was being overzealous? Nope. Unblocked everything and quickly went back to my asexual zen of blocking all porn/pedophilic anime shit

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 1 points 18 hours ago

All the loli anime

Hwat

Like cat subs, before blocking them my screen was full of cats

[–] techognito@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

my screen was full of cats

I see no problem with this

[–] MBech@feddit.dk 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

That's by design though. The internet is for cats and porn, with a very clear line seperating them

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Are you saying that a cat is fine too? 🤷‍♂️

[–] arschflugkoerper@feddit.org 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I was talking about the removal of a clear line between cat and porn, by producing cat people.

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

I was referencing this.

Which is an indirect reference to this:

Been a while since I've been on Reddit. Isn't the front page a collection of all subscribed subreddits? This would apply more to /r/all or am I wrong?

[–] wsheldon@lemm.ee 2 points 16 hours ago* (last edited 16 hours ago) (1 children)

They add "suggested" subs to your feed now. They're labeled as such, but it's pretty annoying.

A lot of content is toxic dopamine-loop bullshit that I will consume if it's in my feed. On reddit, I stopped being able to keep it out of my life.

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

Fucking hell, I'm glad I left. That sounds pretty annoying.

[–] ThatGuyNamedZeus@feddit.org -4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Whenever I see the front page while I'm signed out I just see nothing but "ORANGE MAN BAD! ELON BAD!"

alright, don't you want to talk about things you enjoy? do you actually enjoy anything at all? or do you want to live in that miserable place where you do nothing but feel hatred all the time?

I'm not a fan of Trump or Elon either. But there's other shit you could be posting about that's better for your mental health, don't you think?

Being apolitical is a luxury many cannot afford

If you have time to doom scroll you have time to engage in hobbies and non political conversations. Otherwise go spend time organizing the resistance or get to the range or whatever you need to do.
