In the last 3 days I've been paying attention to r/all, expecting several posts about it and...

Yeah

Wasn't expecting the website to literally shut down nor to monopolize r/all, because 3rd party users are the minority, but I hoped for more than whatever this was.

At least there's a silver lining, I discovered new alternatives that have healthier communities

yes! i landed on reddit twice during the last couple days that way.

  • the NixOS sub wasn't dark, but users were asking about that and some were dropping the lemmy link.
  • the selfhosted sub (or one adjacent to it, don't remember) was dark, and for this query i actually could not find the info i needed written anywhere else. that was a wakeup call.
