That about covers it. If all those were to occur, I'd go back. But realistically, none of them will happen.

That was my path... /. -> Digg -> Reddit -> Lemmy.
Nice to see the subreddits listed by subs. Reddit can't ignore this... interested to see how they respond. I'm sure it will be some half baked knee jerk reaction that will get the community even more against them.
Front page side bar usually shows rules. The others there is no simple way to find out in advance.
My point was that it DOES matter where you create your account, beyond just getting a name you like. So I expect many people will hop around from instance to instance until they find "home".
Thanks for all the hard work! Jerboa is better in alpha than the official Reddit app ever was (or likely will be).
Not a dumb question.. but some other things to consider:
- moderation/rules
- political leaning/community feel
- geographic location... less important but can influence user experience
At a guess they're deploying new backend code.
Do you see the MP4 playing? I uploaded a plain gif, didn't know it was converted until he posted the screenshot with the error.
I uploaded a gif to lemmy, it seems to pass it to pict-rs and convert it.
By default everyone federated with everyone. Some exceptions blacklist others, but still participate in the wider fediverse. Others whitelist specific others, effectively making their own island fediverse.
As for rules, you'd need to check each instance directly. That isn't collated with an API query.
Rules. Community feel. Performance. Geographic location. Just off the top of my head.
