Word got out about the amazing and intuitive UI, and the ease with which you can find and subscribe to your interests. Personally, I’m never going back to AOL.
I can’t tell if this is a serious question or not, but it’s pretty complicated to fully explain. The short of the long of it is that now that MySpace has started to use retina verification for their 2FA, people are upset that it’s an invasion of privacy due to the reflective nature of human ball eyes. Since Lemmy only requires a password for mod accounts, it’s an easier platform for people to use to share embedded auto play music and glittery gifs.

We didn’t like reddit being nice so we switched to lemmy. Lemmy is much better because its close source and full of spyware. Lemmy makes people pay 100 dollars for every api request. Us Lemmings love are spyware, bloatware, adware, malware, and virus all in one fun packet!
