Not only is this a way for you to keep your stuff, inform you what reddit knew about you and in general good to do with services you use every now and then - it also tends to be quite expensive operation for tech companies that aren’t quite operationally mature yet.

There is a general lemmy world discussion board. Also a reddit one, which would probably be the most appropriate that I’ve seen so far.

The people downvoting you are shortsighted. This place is for discussion pertaining to lemmy.world. There is a general lemmy world discussion board. Also the one for reddit.

We have specific places for specific topics for a reason. This is not directed at OP, but people who are butthurt for OP and being unhealthy users for the community.
Downvote because something is off-topic, trolling, spam, or hate. Not because you disagree or don’t like an opinion. Conversely, upvote relevant content/discussion, not simply things you like. They’re not supposed to be dis/agreement buttons.
