Also, my Lemmy account creation date coincides with the Reddit API controversy in 2023.

I felt strongly enough to take action and quit reddit after that mess too.

I do agree with you though. There are definitely active misinformation campaigns on social media - even Lemmy is targeted by polictical trolls and shills.

It's good to have some critical thinking and question everything. I'm with you.

I can answer this.

For the most part, I've been a lurker on Lemmy. Same with Reddit before this. I still upvote posts but haven't felt the need to comment or post myself. There's no shame in this.

After reading the Telegraph article, I searched Lemmy to find other opinions on the topic, but couldn't find anything.

I felt this was a detail that the community should be aware of, and felt strongly enough to post.

The reality for me is, I'm saddened by the events taking place in the world right now. This is not a time for us to sit back and remain silent. We all need to start speaking up.

I'm legit. Tell me what I did wrong?

For an account that is only two hours old, your post history is incredibly boring.

labeling Rage Against the Machine's 'Killling in the name of ' as "divisive", and now posting lame AOC trash, ugh. Boot lickin' with the best. Boring.

Have a look at CanSpace.ca. I transferred my domains from GoDaddy last year.

They have been reliable and I feel good that I am supporting a Canadian shop.

When I needed to contact CanSpace support, they were responsive, friendly and knowledgeable.

My requirements are basic, so I can't comment on WordPress performance. With this being said, my experience with everything else for me has been awesome. No regrets!

For any others considering making the switch, do your homework but they're a good option.
