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.

No RiF, no old.reddit, no coming back.

I already know RIF is gone. I'm operating on the assumption that old.reddit will be gone soon.

Even with old.reddit, you still get karma bots and rampant native advertising and corporate bullshittery that I won't miss.

I'm ready to cast off reddit and forge ahead to the next platform, even if I know the journey will be a bit rocky at first.

Wow I didn't know they were canning old.reddit.

They aren't - yet. But it's only a matter of time.
