  1. Use distributed, federated services like Lemmy, mastodon etc.
  2. Support the hosts with our own funds.
  3. Moderate our own communities.

The second point is the most important. Reddit happened because they are a corporate entity seeking profit. Let's own our social media platforms by actively contributing funds to them.

Well said. I see no reason to completely abandon reddit until it stops serving its purpose to me. I just think it's a bit silly how early people are saying Lemmy is taking over and Reddit is dead. If people are more realistic right now then they won't be disappointed later on. I'll be around for both websites and I hope to see Lemmy grow into something special.
