I don't mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I'm curious about people's outlook on this situation.

Agreed. For a long time, Reddit was the only social platform I've used. But I do not intend to go back. It feels weird.

The community here is much better IMHO

Much less toxic ~~(I'm not talking about lemmygrad)~~

Yeah, but it's still relatively small now. We'll wait and see I guess haha.

What’s wrong with lemmygrad? I haven’t been there yet so I don’t know.

It’s like r/The_Donald but on the opposite end of the political spectrum

I describe it better as stethoscope theory.
