Maybe its too on the nose to say so on Lemmy, but fuck Reddit right in the earhole. Their pearl-clutching, risk-averse, pro-corporate moderation-bot and tattle-tale system was the last straw.

You forgot to mention their being the cuckold of Israel, or perhaps the Gimp. Fuck Reddit better dead than Reddit is a username says on here.

There are still Lemmy users who go to reddit and reddit users who are exploring alternatives.

Onboarding onto Lemmy isn't the best experience and a lot of existing redditors are already afraid of change and don't want to learn a new thing.

I don't know if there is a website dedicated to making it easier for folks to jump ship but I can say that the amount of content on Lemmy now is much higher than it was when I joined.

i think alot of them go back because of the lack of content, and the federation, plus when an instance vanishes they likely go back in the end.

I just want 2009 - 2015 Reddit back, or a place that resembles it. It was just a pleasant time.

Ah yes, right around when Gislane Maxwell was a power user and mod on Reddit.

i heard she came back recently, but its uncofirmed.

[–] albbi@piefed.ca 1 points 7 hours ago

I guess that would line up with her getting transferred to minimum security.
