i have been using saidit becasue i said something edgy and got shadowbanned on one of my reddit accounts a while back. sadly saidit never grew to be as big as lemmy. but it's still good to see decentralized platform rise again. someone mentioned aaron schwarz in a recent discussion on reddit perhaps under a post concerning reddit's recent policy changes and baclashes, and i am glad to see aaron's decentralization idea realizing here on lemmy.
