-

-
Another day of thanking my past self for leaving
-
well Hexbear is just about gone so that should help
-
are you going to use it to train your deepseek?
-
thére are dozens of us
-
if it's the same amount of ppl trying out Linux we might be going places
-
The announcement is why I created a username here. I doubt I'm coming alone.
-
Same here.
-
I wouldn't be too sure just yet, seeing how annoying youtube and it's ads have gotten yet it isn't replaced still.
We might have an increase, but plenty will never leave.
-
I've been online since the late 80s and the Internet, generally speaking, has gone to shit. I've been on Reddit for 16 years and it's been going down the tubes for a while now. Too many people, overzealous mods and now a soft paywall? Yeah, I'm done.
-
Welcome! We can definitely still use a few more people, especially if they’re willing to contribute to content.
-
I was proud of them for those subreddit blackouts, but when communities started to come back online after the mods were threatened with replacement - I knew I had to get out of there for good.
-
Same thing here... I only just discovered Lemmy. I don't know how I managed to only discover it now. But so far so good. It's not quite as active but that's okay, Reddit used to be the same way and was actually better then.
I do feel like the old parts of the internet were decentralized and based on protocols, not single websites. So this is very refreshing and feels like getting back to the roots.
-
Me too.
Man people really like taking a beating.
-
Still no frictionless account migration...

Thank you spez for killing reddit, please digg faster
