I don’t know how some people stay on [big social media] while constantly hating being on [big social media].
Most people I talk to pretend like it’s too complex. They’re upset about a single company controlling their social media, but scared about not having that.
reddit/all lets you filter out 100 subreddits but it’s impossible to filter out commercial ads. you can filter out nfl, but then there are 100 others like nflv2, nflmemes, afcwestcoast, or some other different iteration. same for baseball. mlb, baseballmemes, newyorkyankees, etc. and this is what is perceivable. there’s just so much junk on that site now. it’s just like watching tv: boring and uninspired.
it is significantly harder to find the “right” instance if you want to actually see varied content and not just leftyslop and tech.
i’m new here and lemmy.world is just fine. the photography community here is WAY better than reddit’s. you cant even post photographs there. it’s so absurd.
