Also just joined and this is my first Lemmy comment. 11 years on my main Rif account. 14 years on my desktop account. Uncountable hours spent browsing everything alongside my finely curated mix of content. It was never about karma or likes, it was about engaging with a wide range of people with similar and dissimilar interests, opinions, views, and experiences. The crossover from that online interaction to real world impact was tremendous in my life. Fuck spez. I'm excited for a new wholesome experience.
