Asklemmy

It'd be too late. I nuked my account, overwrote my comments, and uninstalled my apps early this morning. I don't intend to return.

I prefer the smaller crowd here. Reddit just feels like a mall these days. Between all the bullshit, tencent, ads and assholes, I’m not looking back.

And then what? They'll magically stop having to make money for their investors?

Reddit isn't getting enshittified for shits and giggles. They're being forced to make money. That requires enshittification.

Been on reddit since 2010 and over the years I've gotten less and less interested and the only subs I still had interest in were the niche fashion communities.

I'm gonna be the change I want to see and created the lemmy community for one of my favorite brands (Supreme) and over time other ones will fill out the space. I'm also gonna join a patreon discord for better fashion discussion than the reddit subs anyway and was something I'd been wanting to do anyway before the recent events.

With those as a replacement I should be fine. I'm also way more excited about investing into an exciting new community with lemmy that reminds me of the early reddit days. Reddit will only continue to get worse as it gets more corporate and terrible in the same way Facebook and other platforms went downhill over the years. Lemmy is on the come up

They've made it clear they won't. And since most subs are only going dark for a measly 48 hours they have no incentive to. It's literally like that "Oh no, anyway..." meme.

And think of it this way: even if you they revert the changes (or you just decide to please /u/spez and only use the official app) do you think the platform will continue to get better or worse? He's shown his hand it's nothing good for the mods or the users.

People would go back.

Reddit is doing a tumblr so I don't think is gonna recover that easy. Reddit is not gonna allow NSFW subs to be seen outside of the official app, who the hell watches porn from the official app? So many people is gonna drop it.

I think is still gonna survive IF subs like askreddit, amitheasshole or entitledparents are still up and have a lot of people posting, because they so many YT channels read from those (and I hear them daily as podcasts) but if the mayor subs go dark or shutdown is not gonna affect reddit only, but also so many people who works reading those.

Lemmy. I actually kinda prefer this to reddit, content feels much more "local" and since I can't spend hours scrolling through it, it doesn't make me a mindless soul just being fed infornation. Also I already deleted my reddit account lol.

I plan on sticking to lemmy and only using reddit on the pc for specific things that I can't find here for the time being

Base on my couple hours of experience, nope, I don't need that huge amount of unrelated content that I am not interested in. It does take sometime to customize and filter lemmy but it would be the same like early reddit anyway, won't take long to tune it to what you like.

I would probably stay here. I deleted my Account on Reddit and i do not forgive spez for the decission he has done.

They have already tipped their hand and shown that money is what they are actively after. My trust is gone. If they were to revert changes at this point, I would simply read that as "We have delayed our plan until we come up with something else."

I prefer the smaller crowd here. Reddit just feels like a mall these days. Between all the bullshit, tencent, ads and assholes, I’m not looking back.

I probably won't permanently boycott them if they revert, but won't leave here either.
