Good -- I hope they do. But more than that, I hope that the userbase doesn't return.
I don't care if they choose kbin/Lemmy/Squabbles(?)/Pr0nhub Comment section/Whatever or a combination of those things -- but I hope they don't return to Reddit.
This is an exciting new opportunity for the internet, imo. Why rely on a single point of failure?
At this point I hope this blackout stays in place until they reverse their decisions on everything and fire spez. If not I'm done with Reddit for good.
Kbin seems more than sufficient as a replacement to me.
The only things I'm missing on kbin are all features of Apollo, not Reddit, so there's literally ZERO reason for me to go back.
Kbin is a little slow though, but hopefully with time they could work on that
It's seen such a massive influx of traffic lately without the servers to effectively support it. It'll improve (I hope.) I already like it better here. Fuck reddit.
Hey, I'm down for PornHubeddit!
PornHubbit!

The material writes itself!
And don't forget His nephew Scroto Saggins in the Lord of the G-Strings.
With replies like this, I don't need Reddit anymore!
It the fediverse so it can be all of those, some of those, one of those or whatever! Right? Am I getting it yet? I'm never going back to reddit.
If only squabbles implemented activitypub so it could federate with lemmy and kbin... (It doesn't look like it does)
I am actively experimenting with both. First post here! I find lemmy/kbin has a huge potential, but bloated initial experience. (Was cloud flare really necessary?). While squabbles is light and easy to get into, but less overall potential.
I signed up for squabbles but was turned off before I even started testing it when I saw all the botspam in r/RedditAlternatives.
