Reddit will lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says
-
I guess we can expect another burst of Reddit refugees
-
One can only hope they’ll have the mind/willingness to.
-
This is great news... for lemmy!
-
Amazing! Keep stepping on rakes, Reddit.
-
Prediction: This change comes to life, people make an uproar about this. Then they forget this in a few days and continue using reddit.
This same old keeps happening with reddit, Twitter/X, etc.
Hopefully we do receive some refugees to Lemmy!
-
In other news, Lemmy will keep all its content open for free, making everything accessible to everyone.
-
Yeeeaaaah
-
Reddit likely won’t die from one bad change, it’s going to slowly die to attrition as they keep putting shit like this in.
-
Well I will be no longer on Reddit then. I’m so sick of this fleecing us at every turn
-
I see more and more people moving to Bluesky, which means Xitter is becoming less and less relevant by the day. Except for nazi shitheads, that is.

-
Reddit refugee here! Really enjoying Lemmy so far, I hope more and more people start jumping over

As a sidenote, do tip your instance operators, especially if you're on a small instance. Upkeep isn't free.
-
A lot of people dont use an app at all, much less third party apps, so the whole thing was lost on them to begin with, if they were even aware of it.
-
It's been slowly dying from attrition . It might be gaining users, but meaningful interactions and content production is down from 3 years ago.
-
Yup, and the trend just continues.
-
I wonder if that's what all the banned subs thing was about. Maybe "some content" = NSFW subs
-
niche communities that don’t exist on lemmy.
-
i’m guessing older posts, maybe 6+ months.
-
This is the reason. I can get all the Linux discussion I want on Lemmy, but discussions about an Acura RSX? That community is on reddit.
