Im joining in on the reddit ditching thing, and was kinda worried at first that i wouldnt be able to like use it the way i did reddit as it feels like a whole new place, but after engaging with posts and people and actually being a part of lemmy rather than being lurk mode all the time i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it is to become a member of the community, theres a reasonable amount of subs (or whatever the other word for em is) that fit my interests, enough linux content and shitposting for my liking, and the overall random posts made by people equally fed up with Leddit. (also i admit i used reddit a little cus there was this post on the fedora sub showing how to fix a sound issue i been having after a recent update)
Like others have said I’m going to miss the niche subreddits and the thousand different cat subs lol
Yeah, same. But that’s why we’re gravitated here. To grow those gardens back.
That only happens when reddit doubles down on the api charges. If they stand back to make it barely usable, the migration will slowly stop imho. I really wish reddit would die, but at the end of the day, I’ll be part of the problem when I’ll probably stay where the bigger community potential will be.
