Reddit Activity Plummeted After The Protests (www.garbageday.email)

Excerpt:

Most major subreddits show a decrease of between 50 and 90 percent in average daily posts and comments, when compared to a year ago. This suggests the problem is way fewer users, not the same number of users browsing less. The huge and universal dropoff also suggests that people left, either because of the changes or the protests, and they aren’t coming back.

People keep saying lemmy is rough, but so far it's running just as well for me as reddit with the exception of a few hiccups. It actually has more features for navigation

What app are you using?

[-] clif@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thunder is my favorite so far. The heavy focus on gestures took some getting used to for me but I'm on board with it now.

(Also, not OP)

2nd for Thunder, but I turned off swipe and gestures and turned on the buttons in General.

Thunder is fantastic though i bet the team hates hearing from me. I test absolutely everything for screen reader accessibility and have submitted many many bugs. Thunder may very possibly bevthe most screen reader accessible lemmy app out their and that would be because of my reports and the fantastic coders.

... really? I looked hard (I thought) when I started and didn't find the settings to disable the gestures. Maybe I was drunk. I just updated so I'll take another look.

EDIT: there's an entire setting category named "gestures". Either I was drunk or blind or both last time I searched for those settings. Thanks
