I can't get rid of it, it's obnoxious. I've tried filtering the element with my adblocker but it keeps reappearing. As much as I find Reddit useful (unfortunately), especially for information and discussion relating to my country, I will never install their proprietary garbage app on my phone just to use their website.
Oh well. I've used the Internet before Reddit existed, I'm sure I can get used to doing so again.
I’m a former redditor as well, a few years back. Lemmy is a very nice place. It’s like Reddit back before Reddit went to shit (~15 years ago).
This year, we’ve had a big influx from Reddit. This is great that people are finally abandoning ship.
I’m pleading with you that are new here…please don’t bring the nastiness here. Start afresh!
I say that because I’ve noticed a sharp increase of shitty attitudes all of the sudden. It’s a direct correlation with the new influx of redditors. I had someone, just two days ago, accuse me of acting like an r/atheist whatever-the-fuck. He was trying to insult me because I disagreed with his view on something.
It doesn’t matter if we agree or disagree…respect and latitude is what makes Lemmy a great place. Let’s not turn this platform into Reddit 2.0 ❤️
