MODERATORS
I realized a few weeks ago, when a question was asked about what all the off-shoots of the fediverse were, that the "lemmy-style" of social media is the only one I like (piefed,etc included). I realized all the other ones focused on "following users" which is why I never got into them. I use voyager a lot to lurk when I'm away from the pc and it doesn't even show who posts it.
I just have no desire to follow an individual, company, influencer, or celebrity shit. I'm here for the content, poster be damned (but respectfully appreciate their contribution). I want a subscription feed based off of categories, just wish there was a video platform that did the same thing (I was always horrible about not using subscription feed for youtube and mostly only used it for local and news).
