    Why are people joining .world to begin with?

    imo it’s because it’s the most similar instance to reddit, culture-wise.

        I believe some people are more concerned about getting away from the reddit corp than the reddit community.

        For example, some who came during the API exodus came because the userbase popped, but the userbase only popped because so many redditors were prompted to leave over a technical corporate decision (as opposed to a community culture issue).

        Some people were forced away from Reddit and don’t subscribe to that idea (yet?) - maybe they will understand that after being here for some time, but I know when my reddit app stopped working I just wanted something to fill the void

        People want lefty reddit circle-jerk, but don’t want to use the official app or mobile website.
