mods can suck, admins can suck, but you can go off and start your own instance, with blackjack and hookers.
I also like that I can see that someone is posting from hexbear, and I can disregard their comment. It saves time.
Yeah the instancing makes malicious users much harder to come by, and easy to hide for sure.
Same reason I joined here, plus most users on Reddit are just bots at least in here you can tell who's a bot and who's real and you can tell which comments to agree or disagree with and which to ignore based on the instance lol, it's way easier and friendlier here tbh I was banned for violent comments on Reddit mainly because the hive mind there are mostly removed but in here I can say Fuck Reddit, it was good once before the coronavirus now it's just a piece of shit.
It would not surprise me to find out 50%+ of Reddit activity is bots at this point
punches Chaos
Yeah! Violence rules!
