    Well count me in. It took me two weeks to successfully create an account, but it finally didn’t crap out on me.

    Maybe this is the good thing. Let Reddit stay filled with the lowest common denominator and divisive politics. Making Lemmy a little more hassle than the common user wants to experience to get into might be the only thing that keeps it from becoming the ban heavy echo chamber Reddit is.

      It’s funny, because it’s not even a very hard barrier of entry to overcome, just takes some patience, but it’s apparently enough to keep a lot of low effort content out.

        If people didn’t choose the easy route when given the option, North America would not be suffering from an obesity epidemic. Why make something healthy and time consuming when fast food is so conveniently available?
