Some of the niche communities I frequent unfortunately haven’t made it to Lemmy so I have to check back in periodically. Recently Stealth hasn’t been working that well for me so I tried the browser, but Reddit blocks MullvadVPN…So I created a throwaway just for reading Reddit…and guess what? The app is an absolute mess. Still laggy, still choppy, still buggy. Legit, the first community I randomly clicked on gave me this graphical glitch. How tf can this massive corporation make such an awful app still? .

    I hear you, but unfortunately I have not enough experience nor time to moderate the niche communities I loved on Reddit.

    You might say this is selfish because I’d leave this to others, as if their time is less valuable, but really you need to be capable of being a moderator and I’m really grateful to those who do so. You also need to be an expert (or knowledgeable enough) in the topic being moderated.

    While I was on Reddit my main account had a single comment in 12 years of having accounts (and even more without): it was a request to get a Tildes account in June 2023, then I found out about Lemmy and here I am (and here I’m way more active than I’ve ever been because I feel Lemmy is small and needs active users and I enjoy being here a lot more)
