What's the easiest way to find communities across different instances? If I could figure that out, I would just forget about reddit.

RiF just kicked me out. I think reddit is trying to do another sweep to break unofficial apps/plug-ins/etc.

Revanced released an update that fixes it. RiF is working for me again.

I think the issue is that Lemmy is still developing and we don't know what it's going to look like even 6 months from now. $20 for unlimited access isn't bad at all if you know you'll get your money's worth. I'm still hesitant with Lemmy because there are features that it lacks. I'm optimistic that they will be added, but I can't be sure.

Where could I find that workaround?

I've been enjoying Connect. It's much simpler than the other apps I've tried.

I got an error message telling me that something was wrong with my user agent. Is that what you got, too?

It's a gamble, too. One ICU visit would cost you more than you'd ever pay in taxes for universal health care. Insurance wouldn't be necessary, so that $300/mo that covers your family would stay in your pocket.

BUT, there's the tiny chance that you and your loved ones are super-human and will never have to pay for medical care beyond a cold or cough every few years. Then you can really stick that in the faces of poor people!!

It's so stupid because people who have health insurance are handing over that money to a company where the profits help no one as opposed to the government, where the profits would help other people. It's still a gamble.

Have you checked out Signal? It's the most secure messaging app out there. Not even the US' alphabet agencies can retrieve encrypted texts sent through Signal. It's pretty much what whatsapp claims to be.

Research. Are you wanting something similar to reddit/lemmy/kbin/mastodon, something like whatsapp, or something like discord?

Right-wingers do. Buying Twitter exposed him as a terrible business man who could only be considered a genius by Trump standards. Luckily for him, many Twitter users do think Trump is a business-savvy genius!! He has an even bigger following now because he isn't pandering to tech nerds who are genuinely interested in what he's doing with his tech companies. Now he's targeting the alt-right with conspiracy theories, Hunter Biden's ~~dick pics~~ laptop, and "free speech" (for only $11/month!).

I doubt it, honestly. The people who are still pissy over at reddit don't actually want to leave unless they're presented with a reddit clone that has both a fully developed app and a huge userbase. Maybe in a year things will be different, but we'll see.
