“We also noticed a consistent criticism of the built-in slur filter in Lemmy.”

• The funniest and most ironic thing about this is that the same people who criticize the filter are the first to insult you... These people already have a home. That home is called Reddit. And even if they're more fascist, they'd better use Gab. But no, this social network better not be corrupted. Lemmy is a very healthy social network. People are friendly, curious and intelligent. It sounds a bit cliché, but it's the truth. I like to make comments and posts here. I feel more free to express myself, unlike in Reddit. I just hope the core developers continue to moderate as well as ever, without giving in to pressure from those troublesome users. Keep it up 💪🏽💖

• Closed source (honestly, I'd rather not know what the redesign of Reddit is made of...)
• It's annoying, slow and tedious
• Works better in Chrome™ (I can't even scroll down the website properly with Firefox)
• Harmful business model (Reddit Premium, Reddit Coins, pay-to-win-karma...)
• It's a JavaScript powered website (not recommended for low-end machines)
• Communities are full of racists, homophobes, sexists, xenophobes...
• The use of sensationalist headlines is promoted to gain karma
• Is the ideal site for alt-right and conspiracy theories apologists
• Leftist/Communist/ML/MLM userbase is discriminated and censored everyday
• Reddit moderators are terrible (most of them)
• Dark patterns everywhere
• They block Tor users
• (I can think of many more but need I go on?)

I know. A wise decision imo.
