I’m here from Reddit. They banned me for absolutely no reason. That’s frustrating. How works Lemmy ?

    Whhhhhyyyy Linux ? It works with Edge on Windows 11. But I think you’re right. It seems a far less anxious than Reddit, too.

      You don’t have to use Linux… But, the side effects of using Lemmy might include switching to Linux and self hosting.

          #ME2

          I mean, I didn’t when I joined Lemmy, but I do now.

          I don’t think Lemmy was the deciding factor, Microsoft almost forced me by checking how much they can enshitificate win11 before users start exploding.

              That’s perfectly valid. If Windows suits your needs and priorities, use it. I use Windows on my work laptop because Linux would be a nightmare with all the tools and apps we use. But personal laptop? Linux all the way.

      In case you’re serious, Lemmy is the hot, exciting, punk, rebel version of reddit and Linux is the hot, exciting, punk, rebel version of using your computer. The motivation for using either are quite similar.

        In fact, I’m using the both systems. (I used more or less ALL LINUX EVER lol). But I’m here just because Reddit is now a full porn / horny place, without any soul. Too many ads too.

      It’s okay if you’re not linux, but there are a lot of those users here. You’ll hear a lot about it, lol.

      It is not an anger factory here either for the most part. You’re coming around election time, so there is a bit of it. You might go through a bit of withdrawal.
