  • Just looking at Redditor’s reaction to this is telling me the battle is already lost. Most seem to be completely done and just want their cat videos back. It’s clear that the normies who invaded the site and proceeded to make it worse are completely content with what is happening so long as their addiction is fed. As far as I’m concerned, they can have the site.

    HOWEVER. Maybe its a sign that all of the people who were in favor of the protest actually did leave and the only ones who are left are those who don’t give a shit about it or don’t support it.








  • I’m honestly done with Reddit and I really hope enough people find a new home outside of it when this is all said and done. Hanging out on here has made me realize how toxic and mentally draining Reddit actually is.

    I think Reddit will continue to grow into a normie cesspool of children and mentality I’ll folks and will eventually go the way of FB and Twitter where the interesting and saine folks will dig out new communities in some other place to be determined

    While I’m enjoying my time here and I’m honestly shocked with the amount of engagement so far, I just don’t see the “fedaverse” ever gaining any mainstream traction. It’s unintuitive and the barrier of entry is way too high. Even googling “Lemmy” doesn’t bring up useful results.

    Something like squabbles has a better chance for mainstream appeal, but it would need a miracle as it’s only one duder

    That being said, I’ll still be here!


  • It’s really sad, but it’s also super exciting to be a part of something new! All of this reminds me of the old school internet with competitors and communities popping up here and there.

    I didn’t realize how toxic and hostile Reddit actually was until I stopped using it and started interacting with the folks on here. I just hope it sticks around
