And yet mods keep claiming they HAVE to keep their subs open all while banning people who call them out. I’m legitimately being PERMANENTLY banned from sub after sub after sub for simply just reminding mods that they mod for free and they are actively choosing to stand behind Reddit by keeping their subs open. I mean, hey, I guess banning me only gives me more reason to leave Reddit.
It’s definitely showing that most people aren’t willing to be inconvenienced even if it’s to help themselves. I’m not sure a scenario exists where going back to reddit is a good idea. They are going public and that’s not gonna change. Being a public company means they are going to chase the money and if they don’t today they will burn down the platform to make more money later.
Great video, always a fan of Rossman (even if there’s a few times where I disagree with him).
Blackout absolutely needs to be indefinite and I’m glad to see massive communities like r/funny, r/aww, r/science, r/music still going strong with r/gaming and r/pics set to private.
We have about two weeks until the 3rd Party App kill date. Meanwhile, numbers in Lemmy have been booming, indie developers are actively working on apps - all great news.
Personally, I’m not quite ready to delete my Reddit Account and leave some of the niche communities I grew to love. I suspect that after the blackouts, I’ll be using both Lemmy & my old.reddit (with adblock) until there’s enough migration of users.
