    It’s not a “silly” movement and it had to start somewhere. And your attitude is certainly not inviting, but rather condescending. The issue of Lemmy is that the userbase can be insufferable in that way.

        vs

        15 posts on reddit and i just got bored counting https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/search/?q=ketchup

        seems like the logical thing to do for the time being would be to use that subreddit. no point in getting rid of reddit first then not being able to find any alternatives when you search here

        I mean, the movement just started. Give it some time. Lemmy, like Linux, will only grow. But it will definitely not replace reddit, but rather exist alongside it.

        It’s up to the userbase to keep the climate inviting here, and we should strive for that instead of criticizing the people indirectly supporting this somewhere else. Also, I don’t know what your comment is saying.

          You have to be retarded if you don’t understand this chain of comments. You coming here advertising reddit to support your noble cause of switching to European alternatives and feel offended I didn’t play fanfare for you? Guess same BuyFromEU community is here, nobody needs your silicon valley advertisement so if that makes it uninviting you guessed right. Now feel offended and go back undercutting EU services somewhere else

            How can one live with so much negativity directed at nothing? I won’t bother to finish reading that comment. You clearly have no good intentions at all.
