Holy shit, I just realized that I joined you guys a year ago, and to be honest, that was probably the most sane year on the internet that I had. It’s surreal to see people expressing the same ideals as me and having actual serious discussion about things, rather than being… you know… r*ddit. You are fucking awesome, don’t stop being awesome, please. Love you all ❤️

    I feel the same way. I noped out of reddit in 2022 when half the communist subs lost their minds and went all lib over Ukraine, and the other half got banned or muzzled. Best thing that could have happened for us imo. It freed us of having to constantly look over our shoulder for reddit’s fed mods, and from having to put up with and constantly argue with liberals and their dumbass takes.

      I still, occasionally browse reddit, cause all the hobby subs. But by God do I get the urge to commit atrocities when reddit recommends me something or I surf the frontpage. The amount of propaganda and western cope is lethal. And also reddit keeps recommending me subs I repeatedly press hide on.

      Also, I was banned from the SNOOSHIT for “harassment”, didn’t specify where I committed or I tested abusing their report system. Last year, I found .ml interesting, then moved to dbzer0 and now *grad.

      Reddit will go like Digg.

    I’m in the same boat! The last time I felt this type of comradeship online was when my friends and I made our own forum in our school years.

    I appreciate and love the grad!

    Even though sometimes it’s best to unplug from all social media (even lemmygrad) this place is an oasis. A place of healing and learning.
