Reddit Migration

Favorite thing I’ve read all day aside from Father’s Day cards from my daughters.

What’s the best/least obnoxious way to suggest to communities who haven’t brought up migrating yet that they should consider it?

There’s like 3 subs that if they migrated over, I’d happily just stay here forever and never go back.

I know it's not strictly relevant but god damn it what is it with people refusing to use the shift key?

The admin over at Beehaw does this too. It legitimately makes it hard to take them seriously.

Yeah, I know, who cares, right?

It's not about caring how people get lazy with their writing, I do it plenty. It's about, if you're going to make a public statement, maybe capitalize your sentences so they look professional? There are countless, simple ways to do it automatically on desktop.

Is kbin different than lemmy? I don't understand how it might be related

It's not worth staying on at this point anyway. The people that remain are largely assholes. You can basically see the reason that protests don't work as a macrocosm, because most users now are just bitching that "wahh the blackout only hurts users". No different to people complaining about climate activists who block highways, or trans right activists who get blamed for "being too loud and annoying". Protests don't work when solidarity simply doesn't exist because most people are just selfish, short sighted idiots, and that's basically the userbase that remains over on Reddit at this point. I can't think of a good reason to stay and interact with those kinds of people.

There are also lots of apologetic mod posts that are like "we reopened because we don't want to lose all our hard work and be replaced by someone worse, that is not what's best for our community so we're reopening", the ignorance and arrogance of such statements is mind blowing lmao, but trust Reddit mods to not see the wood for the trees.
