By now, I’m sure you’ve heard about the Reddit protests and blackouts but what exactly is going on with Reddit? Why are people protesting and why did the pro...
A video about the effectiveness of the Reddit protest
Sorry for the question, maybe it’s not appropriate so don’t answer if you don’t want to but, what was the problem with Kbin? I saw many people telling it’s really good so I would like to hear about the opposite.
Agreed on all points, but re: Lemmy.world, not Kbin.
I just installed the Liftoff app which defaults to showing Lemmy.world and posts there are just like /r/popular from the last few years, with lots of shitposting, low effort comments, and mean-spirited memes. That side of Reddit is why I was only subbed to niche communities.
Here feels like Reddit circa 2010, where people use upvotes to highlight thoughtful/insightful content.
It was particularly jarring on Lemmy.world seeing thoughtful posts supporting a different view being downvoted.
Anyway, fully agreed. Beehaw is my Reddit replacement. I just need to start posting more links again, which I mostly stopped doing on Reddit like a decade ago.
