MODERATORS
It was indeed during the API exodus. I used the official app so I didn't have strong feelings about it, but I really hated how they handled it all. Of course it was discussed everywhere and I was like "I hate it like everybody else, but there isn't really an alternative" and someone was like "uhm, how about Lemmy or kbin [or other stuff I don't remember I think]?".
I looked into it, got confused, asked the guy some questions and they were kind enough to explain. Looked into it more and made a slow transition. Really helped this was at the peak of the exodus so everything was firing up here.
