People on lemmy are the same fuckwad assholes you meet on reddit. It’s not like being a better person is enforced on the lemmyverse outside of a couple of instances like hexbear and lemmygrad. idk maybe it’s me but it’s like why bother, why not just use reddit if you’re going to be a shitty person or overall debate pervert? Weird shit.
To be fair a lot of people, me included, came for the API thing and stayed for ideological reasons
Also, there’s a difference between “left just because of the API thing” and “The API thing was the last straw.”
I’m gonna be real with you I was the shittest lib before I came here. I left solely because of the API, increased ads, and the addition of micro transactions for profile customization. They ruined my treats and that was too far for me then. Anyway if it wasn’t for that and posters like yogthuos I’d still be a shitlib
Same. And. Cowbee.
I came for the API thing. I also patched the app I used for reddit so the API thing wouldn’t even affect me. It still works as o today!
I don’t really use reddit anymore, for ideological reasons. It’s such a terrible place.
