Bravo to you. This was absolutely the right call and I hope you let it rot if there isn't a massive change of direction. Frankly, for me, even if they do roll things back I am still done with them. P2P is how the internet should be (funny considering torrenting has been a thing for how long now?) and thankfully we have guys like you to step up and help get this off the ground. Thanks!

I'm glad this Reddit blackout finally inspired me to make a Lemmy account. I already like it enough that I may or may not even go back to Reddit. Yarrr!

Reddit has been weird with comments, and formatting for me. I can actually copy and paste here without my comment getting kneecaped. :O

I love Reddit, But plan on using Lemmy now too. Doesn't seem too bad.

I know, right? For me it's a drop in replacement. All that's required is for the people to stick around.

Seems quite good. Although I'm having some trouble with connecting to some instances (e.g. feddit.dk) Edit: Everything seems to work now (2023-06-17)

Im prolly gonna stick to Lemmy even if Reddit magically apologizes and gives us each a free cookie. Much better comment interface, and it's not Reddit. :3

Hypothetically speaking, if this instance gets taken down would it be possible for the admin to recover the data and respawn it on a new instance?

reddit fucked themselves so bad

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Respect. Decentralization fits perfect with piracy anyhow.

Always good to see this pop in here. I'm already liking Lemmy much better so far too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly hoping that Reddit does nothing so we can build a better commnuity here
