@osmanthus @wonkothesane @vertana You’re not wrong.
I’ve been on Reddit for nearly 13yrs. It started out really good and then, even in the most innocuous subreddits, you’d have people that just wanted to fight. At times it was impossible to have a conversation or get help because of the trolls.

Going to try out Lenny but feel like I get 90% of what I need from social media right here.

@nonproductive don’t forget you can follow kbin, Lemmy, and other services found on fediverse.to. So I get best of both worlds - Twit type feed on home page and subreddits in my Mastodon lists.

@vertana Oooo, that’s actually cool.
So would it be like having a particular subreddit in your “home” feed to on Reddit?

@nonproductive copying from another comment I made:

If you are using a Mastodon client what you can do is follow "subreddits" (communities) and then add them to a list and mute them on your home page. For example, making a list called "Video Games" and then adding the account "@gaming" to it will effectively create a feed of that gaming community to that list. So now when you click the "Video Game" list it brings you to that. You can add as many accounts as you want to these lists and basically create your own personal multireddits.

@vertana @gaming ok... this is brilliant. I have been using lists like I did on Twitter and never thought of using them to follow lemmy groups.

Thank you very much for this. Looks like I have some evening browsing to do today :)
