Watch Reddit die. Pray for Reddit to die. Help Reddit die.
Will add more rules as needed.
If you're concerned that your post might be astroturfed/brigaded by pro-reddit individuals, give us mods a heads up beforehand, and we'll try to monitor the thread.

I did hear something....
I caught the random diggnation stream that was a cam pointed at a desk for an hour. Guess that was this.
I'll pass. Fuck reddit.
The other major tech news I've heard recently about keeping social media free and for the people, is that BlueSky has just implemented a link tracking system so they can track where users go from their site (they're doing so to sell the information to corporate clients).
This means Mastodon is currently the Federated alternative to the twitter style websites.
No
They already fucked their chance, they're just gonna do the same
Also a Reddit refugee, but moved over after the API debacle.
After that Reddit decided to ban my 10 year old account, I guess as a final fuck you, but I’m not missing much these days for 98% of what Reddit considers content now.
The other 2% is when I pop in for my super niche hobby subs because Lemmy is too small for those
Was just having this conversation.
Reddit is so big, your super weirdo niche hobby still has 1k plus people to talk to about it, lol.
Reddit is the new digg. Its taking longer but the result will be the same. When the real mass exodus occurs we will pick up all the toxins currently in their bubble over there.
welcome! it is better here
Welcome. There's a lot less fuckery and it's a lot quieter.
Got banned for saying a member of the Taliban should be killed and not on a merry go round.
A gift of peace in all good faith
Welcome, there hasn't been a better time than now in a while.
Elom Musk has been pressuring Reddit's CEO to force mods to accept links to hia fascist platform.
So I can only see Reddit become worse as the years go on.
This should be the last migration we have to do, since the open and decentralized model resists enshittification.
Me too
Welcome to the fediverse!
resistance is futile
welcome!
Welcome!
