Idk how to explain it and I imagine it’s been said plenty of times by now but it’s just, way easier to engage with posts here, usually on Reddit I’d just ignore the whole commenting aspect and just scroll through media.

I like this change, it reminds me of older social media platforms I used to use that were fairly small, player.me for instance.

    WIth federation, there’s built in resiliency. If for whatever reason the instance hosting the largest memes community becomes unavailable (shuts down due to costs, defederated, etc.) we can just switch to a different memes community on another instance.

      Plus this already was the case on reddit, you would often have the biggest mainstream sub for a hobby and then a dozen+ smaller, more specific ones. More choice is good imo, and because of how federation works it will never be hard to find the most popular version of a sub
