Well i guess we should have seen it coming right. The people pissed enough with Reddit to leave were most likely to be technology proficient users and bourgeois hating leftists
For Twitter it really doesn’t make sense because it has become undebatably a “Nazi bar”, metaphorically since they aren’t an actual bar, but they still support and tolerate Nazis (and other manners of horrible people).
Some people insist that it isn’t and there are “normal level headed people there” but that doesn’t matter, it’s still a Nazi bar, because it accepts and tolerates Nazis.
How can someone expect to not be judged for going to and hanging out in a place like that?
Reddit has an absolutely massive wealth of community knowledge. If you want to find a community for $thing or gain obscure knowledge on $thing, that’s where you go (assuming there isn’t an old forum post from before Reddit killed forums).
Twitter is where a lot of people still are. If you’re the kind of person to care what a particular person says, that’s where you probably want to be.
Instagram is used by young people who have friends on Instagram.
It isn’t a great system, but it is the system that we have today. This is why legislation compelling Meta/Twitter/whothefuckever to act in an ethical manner is important. Social media is to some extent a natural oligopoly, and unless we get extremely, extremely lucky, the fediverse will always be a niche community.
Why does anyone still use reddit? Why does anyone still use Twitter? Why does anyone still use Instagram?
These comments are so braindead, Jesus Christ.
Find me easier to access niche communities and I’ll be gone from reddit. I hoped Lemmy would blow up. Instead, reddit just shrank.
Have fun trying to discuss anything that isn’t about linux, american politics or reddit/amazon/elon bad!!. Lemmy is just a decentralized circle jerk.

Forgot people whose only opinion is hating the website they’re on.
Blow up one server and three new will sprout.
Yeah I really wish people in niche communities would just migrate over. I honestly don’t understand why they haven’t yet.
Yeah, Reddit is not the ghost town I thought it would be after the mass exodus.
I don’t get why more people didn’t move to Lemmy or mbin
Because people do not care. It is that simple.

What’s wrong with Instagram now?
Centralized and owned by meta. Harvesting your data constantly. Ads upon ads that track you. Proprietary.
Maybe because they just want to???
because their friends are there
or in reddit’s case, because they think their friends are there
