        When I went to download Voyager to test it out, I realized that I still had Apollo installed. I hadn’t had the heart to delete it …until now.

      RiF was so good. It’s how I interacted with reddit for a very long time. Now Jerboa but it’s still not quite there. Although it’s free and the devs are super awesome.

      Same here. I floundered and ended up on Kbin. Then that had a massive outage and I discovered that lemmy had Voyager, and bam!

    Boost got blocked on Reddit during the API shutdown, the creator then made the app for Lemmy. I came here with the rest of the Reddit Refugees.

    Reddit api change but indirectly.

    The 3rd party app closedown led to tons of weird niche subs showing up on popular, and their mods were quite silly, and several sub bans later, a complete ban for defending Palestine.

      From what I’ve seen, that last bit might get you some negative responses here, too. Unless you picked your instance well, it might cause you trouble with your account, too.

        It has yeah.

        Doesn’t matter, fediverse is so wide that if I end up on an instance like that, I’d like to be banned so as not to even accidentally go there again.

        Hell, I could put up my own instance if I wanted to.

    I didn’t like the changes on Reddit with the API and suddenly charging for access. Turns out, I like it better here. Probably would have liked it before the Reddit refugee situation, too.

    Another arrival due to APIpocalypse and the enshittification process that Spez started with Reddit.

    The reddit IPO.

    I admit it should of been sooner, but I had to make two emails just to sign up for this. (I wanted to try Protonmail and for some reason you need a email to get email with them so you can email your emails.

    Reddit banning third party apps was the last straw. Even though I didn’t use them I supported the movement. I tried Tildes for a little while, but it didn’t click for me. Lemmy works well and I don’t feel it’s as addictive as Reddit.

    Still a little addictive though.
