Maybe yes. Personally it’s not even necessarily about ads for me, it’s the character of the ownership of the platform.
Spez is going the way of Musk and Zuckerbot. It was time to bite the bullet and try something entirely different.
I haven’t quite got the hang of this or Mastodon yet, and it’ll probably take a lot of time, but it’s ticking a whole lot of boxes so far.
Also oddly, you’re even being welcoming. Even the fellow ex redditors. Perhaps it’s refugee mentality. :)
