I’m doing it exactly like I was doing it on reddit, that is, build up my personal home page with all the communities I want to see then I changed my settings to default to subscribed when opening Lemmy instead of All.

Every now and then I check the list of all communities to see if there’s something new worth following, that way it’s also easier to avoid communities that do a lot of spamming, overwhelming the smaller (more interesting IMO) ones.

I’m a fringe case then lol, I keep them until they actually break, they do last 4-5 years for me, sometimes more, I don’t make intense use of my phone, I much prefer using my PC for basically everything.

True, I bought an ipad more than 7 years ago to read because e-readers are too small for my liking.

I don’t use it much anymore since I have an e-writer now, but it still receives updates regularly, whatever comes to my phone comes to it as well, it’s impressive.

Happy to hear companies are finally getting it.

Well, Google isn’t famous for being reliable in the long run with their services, Apple is proven at this point, tho who knows, I’ll wait a few years and see if Google is still at it with their Pixels.

That’s the reason why I switched to iPhone after many years of Android, security updates are vital nowadays with all the sensitive data and apps we use on our phones, Apple is the only one that guarantees al least 5 years, iPhones are not too expensive if you don’t buy the latest models and I’d rather avoid supporting companies that don’t understand the importance of security.

You’re right when you say this is for people who migrated from reddit, but someone creating an account only a few hours ago because they’re mad for being banned from reddit for something that has nothing to do with migration, can be really considered “migrating”?

I mean, “WTF reddit why you banned i didnt nothing”, does sound to you like someone being here because they want to quit reddit?

Yes and we’re here to see reddit go down. Not only we can’t do anything about your ban but many of us wouldn’t even care.

Why are you complaining here? We’re not reddit, take it to reddit admins.

STOP giving them traffic, that’s the only smart way to deal with it.

Do they hope to pick up all other 3rd party apps users? Not that it matters much to me since my reason for quitting reddit is the way they mistreated the entire userbase (I don’t use apps), but I’m curious nonetheless to see how this ends.

Why did you delete the account before receiving the data?

Submitted mine a couple of days ago, they say it can take up to 30 days and I bet they’ll wait till the last minute before sending it.

Will report back in a month :D

I doubt reddit will hire mods, they’ve been crying the platform is not profitable, imagine having to pay several millions more, tho reddit without mods is dead.

Is r/AskHistorians considering moving the community somewhere else? It would be a shame to lose such valuable content.
