I left 2 years ago from my 13yo account, deleted everything as well
Obligatory Fuck You spez
No regrets, I love Lemmy

I was thinking a profit sharing concept for the people running the sub would make sense. I’m sure that’s not what it is though.
-
It's for people with that much money to waste. Saudi princes and the like.
-
Lumbergh...
-
RIP Reddit
-
Looking forward to having more conversations with fewer people. I’m not trying to argue politics anymore. It’s fruitless.
-
Yeah that’s pretty much the only real market I can see for this.
-
I haven't had an account since the Apollo purge but fuck Spez.
-
This is the actual reason for me too. I'm making a point to never visit that website again.
There's exceptions like when searching for troubleshooting help and a relevant result happens to be on Reddit, but otherwise I avoid it as much as possible.

After reddit goes paywall It's time to Lemmy

Welcome!
The fediverse situation has been improved a lot since the first API migration, hope you enjoy it here!

Lemmy can expect some inbound traffic

Is there anywhere I can find a complete scrape of Reddit threads and comments from before the 3rd party app apocalypse? There was a lot of useful info shared on there, but I don't want anything to do with what that site has become. I'm happy just to CTRL+F a big dataset. It'll probably still work better than either Reddit or Google does nowadays. Without media I imagine I could fit it somewhere.
Also, Spez is a greedy little pig boy.

Hi, I think I’m doing this right. Just joined Lemmy lol because of this. Can people see my comment?
-
Yes! Welcome to the fediverse
-
Wild that that was almost 2 years ago now..
-
Risk vs reward. I could see reddit swinging either way depending on which they think smells like more money.
-
Welcome!

Same bromo, finally felt like it was time. So many good memories on Reddit for me over the last 14 years but finally felt like it was the right move to no longer give it my attention!

Fuck Spez
