Why the fuck did they even remotely think this would be a good idea anyway? There is literally 0 good will towards reddit right now and for good reason.
I just checked and my account on lemmy is 3 years old, I was waiting for all of you. At moments lemmy looked like it will take of by it self, but last few months was pretty quiet. I hope this is the push this community needs to succeed.
Reddit got too big for my taste since digg joined in, I don't think this will kill it ( they have the data how many people is using it outiside official apps), but let's make space out of it.
If one was still browsing reddit using rif and seldomly old reddit it somehow still felt similar to what it was 10 or more years ago. Over time I ditched Facebook and some other social media I used but Reddit somehow stayed. Maybe because it was the "anonymous" one, the one I just used for myself without sharing my account with my real-life friends.
Anyway thanks for waiting for us, took some time for me to get up and leave reddit. I hope others will follow, but so far even for me as a software dev/ architect it was quite a change to switch to fediverse services. Maybe it'll be smoother when you're joining bigger servers but let's see what the future brings. As a fan of Foss I'd really like to see this thing grow.

I'm on Lemmy now, so actually it was a brilliant idea

Agree, Reddit itself is unusable without old design.
