Wondered if they might wind up here and want some support.
Welcome Reddit refugee! The situation is infuriating for us all. I hope you find this a suitable new home!
I do hope the moderators jump over! They have a place here on Lemmy waiting for them!
At least it gives us plenty of mildly infuriating content!
I think it’s pretty amusing to see the anti protest comments whenever redditors get up in arms about an issue. There’s always this reactive impulse (in some) to downplay it as a tempest in a teapot that’ll never work.
But if Reddit admins are so resistant despite the horrific optics, it must be important. They’re creating terrible sentiment right ahead of IPO. You don’t do that shit unless you have no choice. The fact that massive protests don’t work proves it matters to everyone involved. QED.
Besides, sometimes you protest not to change things, but so that shit doesn’t change you. Otherwise you’ll take whatever comes your way and you’ll be dead long before you’ve stopped breathing.
People there seem to dont give a flying duck or are unaware whats up. All the communities that seem to carry subs I followed there arent that much active. At least for now - hope that soon this will change. Also, welcome o/
Let’s wait till July 1st, we might see 2nd wave of refugees :)
I did too. Welcome to us!
As did I. Was sort of okay with third party apps being blocked, but the whole mod replacement thing is unfortunate and has caused my favourite subreddits to go down pretty much indefinitely.
