I’m going to be real with you. I use Voyager which looks like Apollo to me, so half the time I don’t realize I’m not on reddit. And frankly, I don’t care. I didn’t come here to avoid reddit content. I came here to avoid reddit client and company. If the content or conversation is interesting, I don’t give 2 craps where it’s from.

All weather is a result of heat exchange and pressure differentials caused by an unequally heated atmosphere. (The side toward the sun is warmer.)

Guy. Several times a week. Legit.

I think you adequately expressed my sentiments. 🙂

Waze!

Well look, here’s a Lemmy F right here! F!

Yep, that was one of the places. Well not /c/communism directly, more like /c/latestagecapitalism showed up on my feed, which is essentially the same thing. I responded to a post without looking at the community, saying (respectfully) that I thought a 70% tax is ridiculous for any demographic or socioeconomic status and I wondered how and why innovation happens in that kind of tax system, and I learned how many ways my family could die at their hands and how I’m the reason death and disease happen in the world. The mods removed the threats but I removed my comment to stop them from returning. I didn’t know it was the communism part 2 /c/.

What’s worse is THEIR threats were being upvoted by the community and my respectful original comment and replies were being downvoted like crazy. It wasn’t just the commenters - the voters were complicit. I had ZERO upvotes other than my own. There isn’t a decent human over there if you’re not a communist. They want to kill you. They told me, in lots of ways.

He’s like a world mod. Just skipped Lemmy. Just world.

platform bias is real, folks. i’ve had lots of the lemmy F’s since i’ve been here.

I said I was a capitalist and a 70% tax was absurd - nothing else - and the next three comments direct to me had the most horrific insults and threats of physical violence against me and my family, the server owners removed them. If you’re level-headed and want to debate the merits of each system, you’re by far the exception.

You must have followed a lot of communities that like Twitter. This was not my experience. I don’t remember the last time I saw a Tweet on Reddit and feel like it was measured on one hand in months, maybe years.

Yep, noticed that

In calculus, things that divide by zero you really learn ״go to infinity” - just graph it and you’ll see! The smaller the denominator gets the larger the result. True, there is no actual value at actual zero. But isn’t sickness limited death? But my crap is still zero because of the numerator.

Can’t say I agree. I miss karma. Not because I want it, because I don’t care. But that imaginary internet point sure drives a lot of content - and even repeat content has a purpose to drive platform growth. I had like 1,000 subs and FREQUENTLY saw something for the first time that the tHiS iS a RePoSt people came out of the woodwork for.

Also Dreamcast but for a different reason than most. I learned it played burned games by default 10 minutes after I sold it.

I just posted this in another unrelated thread, but relevant here as well: https://wefwef.app was the key for me. It’s nearly EXACTLY like Apollo. Installed on my Home Screen and put where the Apollo icon was. (Apollo moved to a special folder to commemorate its memory.) You guys, I’ve got to be honest, I didn’t think Lemmy was going to work out for me, but with wefwef, I don’t feel like I’m missing a beat. Looking forward to Lemmy and the fediverse continuing to grow!

• No affiliation with wefwef, just hoping other Apollo users who came from Reddit can find this because it’s honestly helped to heal the hole left by Apollo.
