I’m having fun on here and the apps (memmy for me) have been working great so far, so there’s practically no difference for me.

I didn't delete my reddit account so I still have the possibility to easily return but I don't think I will unless the community here in the Threadiverse dies down or something which I don't think will happen.
The same thing I did when Wotc tried to invalidate the ogl, walk away from any future support of their products and find better options, which is why I'm here.
I deleted my account on Reddit because their handling of the situation didn’t really inspire confidence in the site’s future 🤷♂️I won’t be going back regardless.
Fediverse is a neat network model of integration of communities in the same way that integration happens in real life.
Once bitten*, twice shy.
*Ok, many times bitten, but that doesn't roll off the tonge as well.
Nice try spez, I'm not telling you what my plans are
I've already moved on, period.
Only way I can go back is if spez steps down. I can’t trust anything to go right with Reddit while he’s in charge.
Personally, I'm loving Lemmy for what it is and I'm here for the long haul whether or not I continue to scroll Reddit on occasion.
If they roll back, it will be temporary until they fix their app. But this is happening. Either way. If they roll back and start this mess all over again then Lemmy will get a fresh influx of users in a few months which would be fantastic as it will give the communities time to settle in and apps to develop before then. (Sync has already announced it will be developing for Lemmy going forward). If they don't roll back, then Lemmy will get a second boost in a few weeks and the developer of Sync can continue uninterrupted.
Either way its a win for Lemmy, but I imagine at this point Reddit's best move is to stick to their guns and become what they want to become. Good for them. I don't really care .
I honestly would go back to reddit for the nitch communities that will have a hard time re building e.g titanfall, beans in things, ect. But this will definitely be my new home and I would try and push for those communities to migrate here.
In my case? Nothing. They thoroughly burned that bridge. They would have to rebuild it, and merely returning to the status quo after showing their hand isn't enough.
Reddit is dead to me and my account is long gone. Everything I lost from reddit over the years is here. No need to go back.
Can Reddit also un-slander the 3pa devs?
After Steve's behavior and treatment of the mods and developers, I wouldn't go back if they paid me. Even in the best case scenarios, they can't undo the damage that's already been done.
I'll probably go back from time to time to:
- Demonstrate that them reversing course wasn't for naught
- Steal content to post here to help foster communities/magazines until the next idiotic decision that drives users away
Ultimately, this is my new home. But I'm not against swiping content to furnish it with.
Then I'll use it when it pops up on duckduckgo when I'm looking for troubleshooting or stuff. Fediverse is now my procrastination hub.
Along with most of the people here, the damage has been done in my opinion. I'd probably check in on Reddit more often, but refuse to be invested there as I was before.
I've already deleted (nuked) my reddit account. I wouldn't go back, I was so sick of the tiktok videos and endless reposts.
Imagine we're at the point where the Titanic has split in two, and the remaining portion is held afloat by trapped air. You can patch the hole made by the iceberg, but it probably won't change my plans too much.
I'm happy here, now
Honestly, I would probably be using both, in that case. The Threadiverse feels a lot like the early days of Reddit and I would love to be part of it and see it grow up. Assuming this keeps expanding, it's too late for me to go back to exclusively using Reddit at this point. Giga brain Mr. Huffman made sure of that.
However, there are numerous great communities at Reddit that haven't found a place here yet. Especially many of the smaller subs that were already very niche as it is, and that one probably won't not find anywhere else anytime soon.
I'm already regularly using multiple different sites as it is. Both larger international ones, as well as smaller local blogs and forums. I don't personally see an issue by itself to keep both Reddit and Kbin on that list.
Hopefully, we will see entirely new communities pop up and grow in the Threadiverse. That is, communities that aren't just different flavours of "Reddit sucks". Not saying it's not entertaining, but I think we need to broaden the scope a bit going forward. :)
I might end up on Reddit when googling for answers but I wouldn't go back full time. It has been very clear from the past few days that spez and co are not to be trusted. I like kbin a lot, I feel adults are having actual mature conversations instead of the insult matches that happen on Reddit. And I have contributed here more than I have in the 10 years of using Reddit.
There are two communities that I'll stay on Reddit for, but my interest even in them is dying (and was dying even before this spez idiocy).
As for the other 80% of my participation on forums, I have liked what I'm seeing on the Reddit alternatives and I am likely going to get my cup filled there. So, for me, this whole shitshow has been a win and not a loss.
I'm just done with reddit.
the damage is done, why support a company that treats their userbase so disrespectfully?
my return to Reddit has become conditional on spez being completely outed from any position at the company
I'm a user, not a customer. The changes only affect me because I use a piece of software. Regardless of what the company chooses to do, I'm not going to change that. I'll use the site, block the ads & scripts, and continue as normal.
Continue to use kbin.
