Today marks my first day on lemmy after leaving Reddit after 3 years, I already like the platform I just wish their was a mobile app, and wish the mobile web support was a bit more polished but i understand it’s still in it’s earlier stages

    Yeah, thing is Linux and programming discussions, I can have on here and on Mastodon. I mostly come to Reddit for less intellectual content, so especially without an account, /r/all is unfortunately the only real entrypoint.

    I try to filter out the subreddits that I truly don’t care for (sports, certain games, movies, series etc.) or that are racist, sexist, glorifying violence, insulting people etc…

    Which are 194 subreddits right now. I do have to say that I was appalled, how much hateful content is just par of the course (presumably because they banned those 7000 hate subreddits).
    Like, why is there a fairly popular subreddit called /r/FightPorn? Why does /r/HoldMyCosmo frequently show women seriously injuring themselves? Just what kind of sociopaths find this content entertaining?
