And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco.

… And I realized I hadn’t been there for a week… And frankly didn’t miss it. I am really loving the beehaw (and Lemmy as a whole) community. Thanks for being open, welcoming, responsive, engaging, and just generally nice people. I’m happy to be here. :)

    Popping my Lemmy cherry!

    That ama is what convinced me that reddit is dead, and in like 3 minutes took me from being sad about it to enthusiastically watching it die.

      I’d bet my left nut reddit will survive for quite a while yet, probably do even better over time

      The kind of people who end up here just aren’t the target demographic for them anymore

      Welcome! I just came over yesterday because I submitted a report, WHICH WAS ACCEPTED AND ACTIONED BY REDDIT, then got a week ban for abusing the report feature.

      I guess they don’t want us tying up resources as they work overtime to alienate the users that make Reddit worth a shit. 🤷

      Same here. I was going to stick around till the end of the month, but that AMA convinced to delete my account today and move on to better things. I made sure to leave a tip in the jar for Christian on my way out.

        I paid for RIF is Fun Platinum Golden, just as a thank you to TalkLittle for his awesome work. I feel bad I never did it before, but I really appreciate them
