Guess where? Unironically r/Save3rdPartyApps

The Reddit search for Lemmy also gives these privacy copy-pasta as top results when searching for Lemmy. I’m still betting that Reddit employees are involved in boosting these posts.

    A lot of people still care about reddit

    It’s pretty hard to let go of a community you spent years on

      Meh. I was there 15 years. I’m not missing anything by being here instead. Heck, I feel like here is the more exciting place to be!

        Yeah this place is pretty new and it really does feel nice here (mostly) but I participated a lot in some of the communities I took part in. And those were usually helping newer people in those spaces. It’s pretty fun teaching people about new hobbies and also being that newbie.

        It’s kinda sad to me seeing what Reddit is doing, but also refreshing seeing these new places popping up.

        I’m going to do what I can here, but I think I will miss it at times.

      Makes it easier when you realize you spent years in an abusive relationship and were too young and dumb to realize it.

      But one will become a lot easier when the spam bots take over, Reddit shoves more ads down your throat and posts by crazy people don’t get deleted. Welcome to the new Reddit experience.

        Yeah now that 3rd party mod tools for Reddit are basically getting killed* in addition to 3rd party apps it’s going to be easier to leave for sure.

        • My understanding is that 3rd party mod tools used API access to do their thing, plus automod bots used API access to do their thing.
