I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.

Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?

Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.

The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.

    I started on Digg in the summer/fall of 2005 right around the launching point of Diggnation; maybe 5-10 episodes in. A friend got me introduced to that. I was there until September of 2010 and then made the move to reddit as a part of the Great Digg Migration, and now find myself here on the fediverse

    I’ve never been a very active contributor, but still felt connected and enjoyed seeing the conversations and links that people were sharing
