Pretty much this. We have strong beliefs. Strong enough to leave a popular, functional platform for ideological reasons.
I left for user interface reasons, actually. That's why I'm still on lemmy and not piefed.
I left because all of my accounts were banned for criticizing the government 🤷. I like it here more though. Smaller community makes it easier to be part of the conversation.
