Sometimes it feels Lemmy community cares a bit too much about what happens on Reddit.
Let's be honest, it is unlikely Reddit is going to die or change policy. And who cares.
I'm just happy there is much better alternative and I'm not looking back.
I spent over 10 years on that site. I’ll need a little longer than 8 days to get over how quickly it became a shitshow.
Thing is, it’s not really the site I care about, it was Apollo, my most-used and treasured app. WefWef is a great replacement but it’s not the same.
I'd been on Reddit for 15 years, predating the Digg exodus. Actually, I find that my memories of the early days makes moving to Lemmy easier. Present-day Lemmy is already ahead of Reddit back when I started, both in terms of content and features/availability.
