People who have been on Lemmy since the very initial reddit API debacle, or before even that, how much do you think it has changed? (sh.itjust.works)

Title basically. I was here at the very start of it all and really enjoyed it. However I felt it lost its uniqueness within a few months of mass migration and started turning a bit like reddit again so I deleted my old account. However Reddit has only gotten much much worse since, and Lemmy has stayed about the same. So here again.

I think it's hard seeing the actions and misdeeds of our leaders becoming more transparent. Like you said, I don't think the world is worse, but it feels more in our face. Before we had real time communication across the world, we'd never know a thing about all these things all over. I don't think I can devote that much time to stuff on that scale. It feels good focusing on the microcosm around me.

I want to continue to look for things close to me I can work with. Someone's got to worry about things in a national or global scale, but it doesn't need to be me, and I'm ok with that.
