    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

      Reddit has been compromised by the oligarchs.

      This is the exact catalyst that finally brought me over to Lemmy

        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.

          I received two platform bans in the last few months over the most asinine things. Hadn’t gotten a single one in nearly 15 years up until now.

              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.

                            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.

                              It will probably be easier once Reddit bans them for sneezing.

                                  No shit, that explains Reddits noticeable change in moderation after the election.

                                    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.

                                        A bit weird that there isn't the same cultivation of professionalism though. I feel I don't see much of it here like there was on Reddit. Makes me wonder if Reddit worked behind the scenes to create it

                                          I never believed reptilian conspiracy theories but now every time i see his photo and his eyes remind me of reptilian. So what if it is true? What if them ultra rich with true background story how they climbed ladder of power and success are actual reptilians who make regular earth humans do crazy shit. What if? Because nothing else controls people on the planet but ultra rich. Ultra rich do not go to wars and usually do not deal directly with poor common man. They live in their own world behind the walls similar like in the movie "In time". Putin does not go to war neither his children, or trump. They send poor/uneducated or impressionable people to spill the blood of others.

                                          I wonder if it's an affect of the media we would be consuming will use awkward photos and videos whereas their media uses more normalized. And vice versa.
