You all need to find the courage to close with reddit forever. It's done, don't you see it? Everything was taken away from apps to moderators power, purge of old messages, and soon the reward system. What this suppost to mean? What else will be removed? It is in falldown.

I would like to, but the fact is lemmy is 99% shitposts and memes. Don't get me wrong, I like that stuff but I also need to know wtf is going on in the world. Since losing rif and refusing to use the official app, I am now basically getting news when my wife sees it on Facebook, which means it's old news by then.

Yeah I get that too, but it just shows we've been too reliant on others to generate content for us

If it's the news you need, there are RSS feeds from news sites, I've also subscribed to them after leaving Reddit

Precisely. Sharing your finds and commenting on what others have found is the ideal situation. When only 1% post content, and slightly more comment, it is easy to game the system - like Reddit and these other “socials”. Lemmy’s robustness will be a function of its people.
