Well, I think federation is the way, it doesn't seem perfect (I've had a couple of issues with lemmy) but this feels like a step in the right direction. Reddit has definitely tainted the link aggregator site, and concepts like shadow bans and vote fuzzing are just really terrible. I am new to Lemmy but I don't feel like I am using something inhuman, it's back to feeling soulful, whereas when using Reddit I can't get it out of my mind that it's this evil monolithic machine.
