The Day Will Come When The First Exodus Will Look Like Child's Play

I left after they closed off the API and shut down third party apps. I could never go back, whilst Lemmy hasn't always offered the same amount of content, its always still offered good content, plus I know I'm guilt free of supporting Reddit and what a shit show they've become 🙂

What'd I miss?

How much are the Reddit owners banning any mention of Lemmy, though?

Unpopular opinion: they like it there, and aren't going to switch no matter what happens. We'll see.

If someone like Musk were to take control of Reddit, be prepared. Let's be real, Spez is not even in the same league as Musk in terms of being unpalatable to Redditors so claiming something like "already has been" is ... a choice. But for sure, if someone far worse takes over, there will be an exodus. And frankly, the Fediverse is fully unprepared to handle that, so that'll be fun.

Popular/Unpopular opinion : Lemmy is currently perfectly sized. The amount of altrighters and trolls one may encounter is low enough to make is a healthy network. Depending on the people leaving reddit, it might be a blessing... or a curse.

That will be when old.reddit is culled. They have been preparing to quell future dissidents for a year now and this decision would be the only one that I can think of which would bring that much outrage

What happened this time?

Reddit admins are Nazis and maga pukes. Inevitably they will push people away from the platform and I'm very much looking forward to that day.

Yes, this is me. It’s a little difficult to find content, but at least the app I chose is Apollo-like

Welcome new friends! 💜

The problem for me was not Lemmy. I still believe in Lemmy, the Prolem was that slrpnk.net really was not user friendly. I'm writting this from phtn.app which someone told me about and it's awesome! Looks wayyy more like Mastodon and something from today :D

Its the hard Right turn that most subs took that is keeping me away

This is not a drill.

• Reddit temporarily bans r/WhitePeopleTwitter after Elon Musk claimed it had ‘broken the law’
• Reddit is purging NSFW subs as well as trans-related subreddits

Olympus has fallen folks, r/rule34 has been banned!
