i feel like I aged ten years just figuring out how to use mastodon
it’s like lemmy but they don’t actually tell you what server you signed up on or what server you’re on, so that’s fun. Also, you don’t actually sign in with your mastodon ID, which is so intuitive 😵💫
now to move my gmail to proton
I use duckduckgo anyway, but even that algorithm is getting more and more shitty, getting really hard to actually find anything
reddit, I am so blocked on most of my accounts I couldn’t delete them even if I wanted
maybe if i tried the computers at the library it would work 🤷♀️

I never downloaded the reddit app
I haven’t actually looked at mastodon. Lemmy took a whe to figure out initially too, it’s probably similar and it just takes a bit of time.
I managed to avoid an actual ban on reddit (probably because i didn’t use it much) and only had comments banned with a warning.
In many ways I miss the old 90s newsgroups.
I’ve been having comments removed on newspaper discussions , for stating inconvenient facts that were actually in the article
and i’m getting down voted a lot on reddit a lot
there are some massive propaganda campaigns on reddit at the moment , it shits me
Tomorrow I am exploring Bluesky , which looks a bit like mastodon but with many more members
Just upvoting things like that can get you banned now, along with saying things like “eat the rich” or the name luigi in any context.
pointing out lies by foreign fascist governments can also get you in trouble
this is not right , it seems the terms of use are being exploited by bad actors
