They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours
Oh good job Musk! Bring them all here! Right into our icy flippers!

Well anyway, one has to enjoy the great sunny weather today with bbq and sun baths on my summer property so that’s about the amount of attention this topic deserves.
Certainly feels like trolling.
Yep, with the recent responses I now agree with you.

Reddit has been a an archive of some of the greatest collective minds of humanity. Besides the general algorithm up voting bots hogwash, there have been some really good subreddits with excellent information from learned professionals on topics. it I wish it was preserved rather than deleted. The AskHistorians is one of my favourite professional vetted and clean subreddits, lots of academic discussions there.
But all things have a Golden Era, and then it's enshittified and fades away. As Lemmy will be one day too.
I don't disagree necessarily but this is a very euphoric way to phrase it

I just left after twenty years. I warned them about overly censoring in their research calls but I guess they didn’t want to listen

The day I saw Trump win I knew Reddit was going on the chopping block but even then, it’s been going downhill since 2016 with bots, bot mods, and language policing. Merely saying ‘fucking Luigi’ is a ban worthy offense and it’s absolutely asinine.

Add "brown nosing spinless wimp" to the list of acceptable descriptors of Spez

Just a reminder that if Musk can do this with no ownership of reddit, you know the CCP through Tencent has been doing it for ages.

Won’t the same happen to Lemmy when it gains enough traction?
I think the lack of profile-wide "karma" is one benefit, so there's not as much incentive to farm imaginary internet points and such with the same old zingers. Who knows, but hopefully not.

I can likely fall into some version of a category of learned professional. IMO, it's fine, many of us have made our migration to Lemmy. Reddit can burn.

The fucking bots are insane, they don't even try to hide over there.

I wonder how many people will struggle to cut themselves off from their reddit crackpipe. So many people are still using Meta shit even after it's been overtly weaponized against dissidents.

I bet only a handful know about it.

Truth is this place will fall too. Unless someone can figure out how to protect against these take overs. The rich control the Internet just as easy as they control everything else.
If this is successful, it's only a matter of time.
