When I killed Facebook (+ Messenger, etc.), I became interested into alternative social networks. I don't like microbloggging, as they are frequently used just to express hate and political opinion in one or two sentences. I like thoughtful discussions and cat memes. So I chose Reddit first. I tried Lemmy, but it wasn't good until this year. Now I'm on Lemmy.
