Is anyone else beginning to mourn reddit? (lemmy.ml)

I've never been sentimental about a social media site but it's sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It's just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.

I was in a bit of a panic and still am tbh. The main thing is how easy it is to find resources for any hobby or niche interest on there. It's gonna take a long time for any website to catch up the wealth of resources. I still find myself going "site:reddit.com thing I'm searching for" even though I don't interact with reddit itself too much. That's the thing that will hurt most when it's gone. That and the daily music news/discussions since I like to listen to music.
