Are we committed to Lemmy? or would we move if something better comes along? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.

I'm hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don't love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren't out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.

As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.

It seems like lemmy picked up the bulk of the refugees so far. Shifting again would be risky at this point, it just serves to dilute the numbers again. Some stay, some go etc.

I firmly believe this is only the beginning here. Reddit is probably fine to lurk so long as old.red*it.com remains, but it has become a pretty hostile place for people who participate.

My prediction is that reddit will just end up hosting content posted by bots and commented on by different bots and nobody will have any idea that there's so few real users left. This will become the home for actual discussion between humans.
