The reviews aren’t glowing, but the concept looks fascinating.

Of course they will lose users. They will lose the users that would otherwise get them sued. Pretty sure they are okay with the trade-off.

Long term, yes, great for the planet. But shorter term, a shrinking pool of working aged adults are going to have to care for a growing pool of elderly. Additionally, the overall economy is going to contact before the age cohort imbalance takes care of itself. Same thing is happening across most of the developed world, but it’s happening faster in China, and they’re less developed to start with.

What’s that? It’s on somebody’s property. Someone is paying for power, connectivity, and air conditioning.

“Pcmasterrace” did not start with Reddit.

Everyone’s judging! I’m pretty sure that’s how the platform is designed.

But I get what you’re saying. I’m just adding my little joke to grow the content library.

Same here. Yesterday, I had a moment of clarity, logged off, deleted RIF, and came here. That quickly, this is my thing, now now.

Judging by what I saw on my last day on Reddit, he may be right.

We may look back in the not-too-distant future and be pretty happy that the angry, bitter, Reddit “thing” happened. An open-sourced, federated model is just healthier than what most of us were satisfied with, before. It took all this to make this mass migration possible.

I dunno. This is the energy that made me finally decide Reddit wasn’t for me and work up the drive to give Lemmy a shot. My first 5 minutes here have been great!

Maybe if I’d already seen this post 50 times, I’d get where you are coming from, but for those of us that just got here, this is the energy that made it happen. Be patient while we acclimate.

FWIW, the people staying on Reddit kinda do, or did, impact us. Their apathy means that the community we’ve been a part of for years is not going to get better. They’re why we had to go.
