Farewell rif! Hello Lemmy! Fuck u/Spez!
Another newb checkin in. Reddit since 2007. Fuck spez.
Begun, the migration has. Apollo defector checking in.
EX RIF user reporting for duty.
RIP BaconReader
I was active on Reddit for well over a decade. Even helped mod a couple of small communities at various points. I also loved Apollo and was an early beta tester for that app. For me, Apollo was Reddit. It was the only Reddit client I used in recent years and I miss Apollo as much as I miss Reddit itself.
I don’t see myself going back to Reddit. Lemmy has been great and has quickly become very “Reddit-like” for me, but with the vibe of what the internet was back in the early 2000s. I am enjoying the communities that are forming on her.
I’m also very fond of the concept of the Fediverse as a whole. Corporate social media has failed again and again, so I want to move away from it as much as possible.
I have an 11 year Reddit account, and recently got banned for posting about how Nazi’s shouldn’t be around anymore.
Reddit has been slowly turning to shit, and Spez befriending Musk is a pretty big indicator that its going to keep going that way.
Fuck spez
Ex-RIF user reporting in. I’m doing my part!
Still trying to figure this out. Need a decent Apollo style app to fully move in. I’m so done with Reddit. I already nuked the content they let me and deleted a few accounts. Definitely phasing out.
Click Communities. Subscribe to a bunch. Click on your name and go to settings. Set Type to Subscribed, this defaults your home screen to show only posts from subscribed communities. Also make sure the Theme is litely or litely-red.
No one ever mentions the Narwhal users:(
Because they only bacon at midnight.
That’s something I’d rather not bring back please
Is this the dark or light side?
It is up to us to make it the place we want to be!
Redditor for 14 years. Won’t be a redditor for 15 years. Just found Lemmy.world and also checking out one or two other alternatives.
same here. I joined reddit about the same time you did, and had been on it ever since until the recent exodus.
Reddit is done, it might linger on for a few more years, but it is clearly on the path to becoming Digg 2.0 .
