When it comes to things I don’t want to read during my lunch break, yes.

If I had to read a 20 minute post just to doomscroll Elon and Linux, I’d just stick to Reddit. Whatever nefarious stuff they’re doing isn’t more valuable than 20 minutes of my real world time.

And like switching Linux distros, switching Lemmy instances means losing everything unless you have an external backup.

Not for buying new DSiware games?

I hope they didn’t close their account two years ago!

Yes but this is Lemmy, where anyone who doesn’t think Capitalism = bad and billionaires should be shot is a nazi. Some people don’t want to think about politics all the time, especially when it’s so extreme (no I don’t believe half of American voters are nazis). I know the obsession with Elon’s salute made me avoid Lemmy and go back to my niche subreddits until I got bored of them.
