I joined Reddit because it was an open and moderated collection of communities … then after the blackout due to the API changes, moderators were sent packing and any sense of community that had been created was destroyed.
I joined both Mastodon and Lemmy and I’m glad I did.
The communities in both are nascent, but slowly growing, and that seems like a place I’d like to be.
After Twitter became Xitter, I also joined Bluesky but that feels much more like people ranting and venting, less about making communities.
