          Have you heard of ReVanced? Most commonly known for patching youtube to allow more features, mainly adblocking. Well they have patches for a ton of apps now so if you have a reddit account and say you’re a developer you get your own API key they can be injected into some apps. It didn’t work for me for a while but I eventually got it to work for the random search result from reddit.

      It won’t. Some instances will get close, like Lemmy.world, but federation makes Lemmy fundamentally different.

    I’ve been here since the API changes at Reddit and the sub blackouts that followed, and I think it’s becoming more interesting all the time. Back in the early days there was no point in refreshing the /all feed more than once every 4 hours as it just wouldn’t have changed, now it’s much more than that. The number of posts with actual discussions are increasing, and other than a few blocked users, communities and one instance, I like the people I’m sharing space with.

      I also greatly prefer the people on Lemmy and I hope that continues even as more and more redditors show up. Without a spez calling the shots, perhaps instances will tend to ban and defederate from far-right radicalization chambers instead of promoting them to the front page.

        Pretty much all of the far-right instances are defederated from the major servers, except lemm.ee, which intentionally lets users block instances they don’t like.

      Why?

      I kinda like how I often quickly run out of new interesting posts to comment on, but there is enough that I can have engaging conversations.

      The more people that come the more it gets watered down. Not that I am gatekeeping, people can do as they like. Just I am happy right now.

      Edit: Curious about the downvotes. Considering I explicitly said I’m not trying to gate keep and people can do as they please.
