TL;DR: Reddit is removing the option to opt out of ad personalization, targeting ads based on user activity. Some specific ad categories can still be limited, but there’s no more opt-out option.

      I left r/popular and r/all but lemmy still not yet an adequate replacement for non-tech niche hobbies and interests.

        Can you give me an example of subreddits that you still follow? I’m setting up a fediversed instance on alien.top, which would mean that you’d be able to follow/interact with people still on reddit from the fediverse.

          The former. I would love to start these online communities but I don’t have the time nor emergy to maintain them; I’m barely browsing reddit and lemmy as it is.

          For now, I can only compromise and use reddit.
