The real reddit migration has started! the blackout migration was nothing to what's going on right now!
Is that really true? I navigated to the Reddit page just a minute ago and there is a ton of activity in the subs I was using before I deleted my account. There are new communities on here that were created to mimic subs over there and it's pretty telling: Little to no activity on the communities over here but a lot of activity on the Reddit subs that are being mimicked. I'm asking myself if the people that are leaving Reddit are mostly tech people, that either work in an industry related to technology or are super enthusiastic about tech. My go-to subs were humanities related on Reddit. Those are still super active over there.
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.
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!
