I was a long time reddit user, and made a couple new accounts as throwaways last year from different emails but they kept getting shadowbanned everytime I tried to post, comment or send a message. Just last night, my 3 year old account I had no issues using it at all got shadowbanned as soon as I sent a message. It’s just so frustrating how hard reddit is moderated and there’s no explanations given either they just shadowban you and I don’t even know where to ask anyone either I installed Lemmy, hoping it’ll be a good alternative and it is great and a lot of things I like about reddit, but there’s a significant lack of the type of communities that I browsed in reddit. Hopefully I’ll find them here or more people will join and it’ll be better. So what made you install Lemmy and what did you wish Lemmy had?
When they nuked third party apps. For a long time I used the official app, then I switched to 3rd party, nd I couldn’t go back
It seems like most people joined Lemmy for the 3rd party apps. I admit I am not familiar with reddit 3rd party apps and what they do in terms of functionality, I’d love if someone explained them to me
