So far, I have seen no compelling reason to go back to reddit. I see that as more of a reddit problem than a me problem.
The more u/Spez digs his heels in, the more I dig mine in defiance. Reddit is not a company that can survive without its content and moderation. Those 2 things come in 1 form, it’s users. WE are Reddit. WE have now come to the Fediverse in protest. Now we have 1 of 2 choices: Return to the Snoo, or build a new place.
Reddit might have IPO plans and a desire to bring in the $$$, but the only thing that mattered on Reddit are and were the PEOPLE! If they can’t wake up and see that, they’ve made the option easy for us
I have really been trying to stay off of Reddit as much as possible since the start of protest day and I have definitely welcome the fediverse as my new home.
Sure it's slow, but I've found that people here are so insightful and also I've been branching out more and commenting so much more out of the general desire to be make something new as well.
Maybe I'll go back to my lurker ways after a while; but for now I'm more engaged than Reddit has ever made me in the last 7-8 years I've had my account there.
