    Just keep in mind that if you are not satisfied with how your particular insrance is running, you don’t have to stop using lemmy like you did with reddit. You can switch to a different instance and keep on chilling!

    No more switching services! Gotta love this place.

      To expand on this: You can migrate accounts fairly easily. You can export your subscribed communities, and import them into your new account. So the only real thing you’re losing is your post history, but even that is seen as a bonus by many users who are looking to burn their old account.

        Additionally, some instances disable up/downvotes as well so you don’t even need to worry about internet points if you don’t want to.

        It’s worth looking around and finding a few instances you like and checking them out. Some tend to have their old local culture which is kind of neat.
