I support Lemmy but people saying Reddit is dead as of today and everyone is moving over is just way to hopeful or straight up delusional. If Lemmy does take off it will be years before it reaches anywhere near the amount of users Reddit has. Most of the people who said they will leave Reddit also won't commit.
As far as I'm concerned Reddit is dead(to me) a bit like a bad breakup. They still exist, I might bump into them every now and then, but I'll neither acknowledge its existence nor be interested in staying any longer than required.
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.
And all I have to say is.. enjoy it while it lasts. Once all the users come, so do all the trolls
Oh god you sound like my miserable father in law that’s estranged from the family because he’s an alcoholic that has this kind of weirdo mindset.
Yeah, that’s something he would say.
Hmm turns out that many of those those that enjoy feeding trolls, also are trolls themselves. Who woulda guessed!
