1. Use distributed, federated services like Lemmy, mastodon etc.
  2. Support the hosts with our own funds.
  3. Moderate our own communities.

The second point is the most important. Reddit happened because they are a corporate entity seeking profit. Let’s own our social media platforms by actively contributing funds to them.

    Same here for the most part. I still browse reddit on my pc occasionally. I used sync for a long time. When they killed 3rd party apps I couldn’t bring myself to download the Shit reddit app. Lemmy has replaced reddit on mobile for me. I did 90% of my reddit browsing on mobile, so it’s significantly reduced my time there.
