Sorry if not.
I was on Reddit for a lot of years and enjoyed most of them, I really did. Almost all of that was through the Reddit is Fun app, it was one of the few apps I liked enough to pay for it.
I stopped opening RiF the day the API incident happened and I switched to here (using Connect, after some experimentation, because the UX was most similar to RiF). I wasn’t confident we would gain enough users to make it worthwhile to switch, but I wanted to try and I didn’t want to support spez. Just this morning I told my wife that we probably had several thousand users, then a few hours later I saw a post saying we had almost 1.5 million. That’s amazing!
I struggled a bit with Lemmy when I started using it, but either Lemmy or I evolved - probably both - and now it’s a wonderful experience to open every day. Y’all are great and I appreciate your presence.
edit: Probably should have said it in the original message, but in case it wasn’t explicit: thank you all.
Yeah it’s a good experience being on here, sometimes I catch myself thinking that I’m glad those api changes were made - if not for them I would never found lemmy and many awesome people I interact here with.
Really, thank you all
Welcome fellow Rexodus member! Have a shitpost! And a tea! We’re all making life changes to fit not being in an abusive relationship with spezzy.

Pretty much the exact same story here except my app of choice was Relay. I’ve been enjoying Lemmy and Connect though, had to filter out some stuff as always but generally there are good folks here.
