That's the reddit logic for you.

Make a huge, heavily invested deal about a cause.

Do something that suggests that there's going to be a follow-up of change.

But actually do nothing about it and resume status-quo, while talking about how there could've been change, what can be done and act all defeatist.

    I'm on a private sub with a whole cross section of people (it's a Keble sub) and so many of them where angry and never gonna use Reddit again, none of them have left the sub and still post though.

    That's disappointing, Lemmy is fantastic but I guess I understand it's hard to break up with what's familiar

    I'm firmly in the camp that once the major 3rd party apps end up making lemmy apps there will be a gradual migration

    I think it's chicken and egg.

    I find it hard to spend much time on Lemmy cause there's not as much content being posted... Which is because there aren't as many users... But users won't come until there's content...

    I also still stand by the whole instance thing being confusing for someone to join (though I do understand its benefits I guess)
