Honestly, today with Reddit going through with the API changes and Twitter absolutely destroying their platform, this kind of feels like a lovely little campfire away from a collapsing civilization.
Not to be super dramatic, both platforms will still live, but lord it's a weird couple of days for some internet communities.
if lemmy ever wants to succeed, we have to stop being obsessed with reddit and reddit drama.
Just a few days ago, the Reddit talk had already died down. With the mass exodus, it will be talked about for a bit before it dies down again.
Imo, that's good engagement. It's what people are going through. There's no reason to ignore it. Just as long as they don't keep talking about it a month from now.
Eh, this is the internet. Reddit and Twitter being dumpster fires this week is the hot topic. Something will likely come up soon enough to become the next circlejerk. But, to your point, it keeps driving engagement, which will increase traffic and conversation, and as long as the knuckleheads steer clear will help us build vibrant communities.
For me, it is pure schadenfreude at this point.
Reminds me of the Digg v4 migration to Reddit 🤷
I'll be using both platforms and seeing how it goes. Lemmy has a totally different vibe, but it's a welcome one. Feels like the old days of the open internet. Also the memes are better 😂
I've got a craving for a cosy PHPbb forum from 2005.
Big ol' profile pics and banner signatures need to come back.
Heck yes! I had the coolest banner signatures in the olden days!
Lemmy is r/redditdrama for the next year
I know it’s frustrating, but just give it time. Folks will get tired of it eventually.
Sadly way too many people are too lame to actually do anything in their personal lives about the API changes. Makes me kinda sad to see
Thanks for the reminder. Just deleted my Reddit account now. :D
I expect the exodus to be much less than some others are calling for, only because people are way more stubborn to breaking up with content than the app that serves it
I just deleted my Reddit account of 12 years. RIP
I think all the people who would have migrated to Lemmy have already done so. Tomorrow will probably just be one more "normal" day for the lemmyverse.
We are the very loud minority, but one can hope that reddit implodes tomorrow...
They just killed sync for reddit. Not sure about any other clients.
Baconreader died today 😭
That was my 11 to 9 year long app and I deleted it today (it was harder to delete the app than my profile). Today I bitch and moan. Tomorrow or maybe in a week I will be done and hopefully we just wash our hands of the current filth that is reddit and embrace the next gen. I'm excited to see what Lemmy can do.
