Other reddit users are leaving reddit and I am also one of them I came from Reddit I think Lemmy is a perfect alternative for those who value privacy or don't like to be sold and bought by big tech companies such as Google.

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I’ve really enjoyed my time on Lemmy - I left Reddit after the third party API fiasco. Having said that, Lemmy’s still super quiet sometimes, but I feel my voice is more heard by the people who are here.
The quietness reminds me at there is no algo milking me behind the scene for more eye ball time
Biiiiiiig facts, retraining your brain to stop expecting to be fed by an algorithm is definitely a benefit of being here that most probably don't notice or appreciate
Class of 23' represeeeent. I feel like we were still the biggest batch so far, no?
Definitely
At least we were for a long time. User churn combined with steady growth recently might have changed that at this point though, not sure.
i got totally banned from the site, my last account was shadowbanned for a comment removal, many others had the same issue, on thier 5+year old account.
