Twitter has become a toxic cesspit even before musks takeover. He just made things far worse to the point where it's basically just attempted doxing and permanent ad-hominem barrages. It's not worth any time.
I'm really struggling in getting used to Mastodon. Already created two accounts in two different instances but couldn't follow any interesting accounts or whatever.
You should have a go at following hashtags instead of users. You'll find it much more interactive and interesting.
Same here, I am all in with fediverse. I will soon delete both my reddit and twitter profiles, I hope that more people will follow soon. ps: make sure to send a GDPR claim to both so that they purge all of your contributions to the site ( reddit posts/ comments ect... ), this is the only way that they will be able to see how badly they are running these services.

Joined Lemmy last week and Mastodon today, feels good to be free, all looking good so far

Because Lemmy is on version 0.18.1. That 0 at the beginning is important. Better federation with Mastodon will probably come, but the devs have a lot on their plate right now just making Lemmy work with Lemmy content, so it'll probably take some time.

I can't stand chaining comments (with one word in each comment). It's fun to see them once in a while, but they appear as often as spams now.

The quality of content on reddit has deteriorated at an astounding pace. It feels like everyone is just repeating the same thing to get upvotes... and upvoting people who repeat the same thing. I'm kind of glad it exists now as a containment zone. The people who want higher quality content can move to the fediverse. Those who don't can stay right where they are.

I'm waiting for my GDPR data to nuke all my reddits posts and delete my account.
I got my data, and nuked everything !
Everything I use Twitter for stayed on Twitter. I can't leave it entirely... Same with Reddit.
Now I'm curious. What things do you get from Twitter and Reddit, that you can't find elsewhere?
I'm part of a gamedev community (godot) that is still mostly on reddit.
Don't use the lemmy.ml community. [email protected] is the place to be. It's a bit more active. We wanted to promote it in r/godot but the mods didn't answer our request. We should bring it on the godot community site.
