MODERATORS
I literally just signed up for lemmy after reading this post on reddit. I’m ready for reddit to crash. Decentralized apps seem like the way to go. It seems super short-sighted on Reddit’s part to be basically extorting all these 3rd party apps that are super popular.
I'm one of those that nuked my Reddit account too... Was a Boost user for many, many years. Tens of thousands of contributions in the way of posts and comments and this move by them was the straw that broke the camel. The place is a shell of what it was in the early days sadly. Year by year it's seemingly declined.
I'm done with it and moving on to pastures a new :)
So far, I'm really impressed with Lemmy !
Well, i'll wait till 1th july and nuke my account if my app won't work.
Fair enough ! I have been wanting to leave the place for a while so this was kind of the perfect excuse really :)
It's actually been quite refreshing the last day or so sussing out a new corner of the web...
