Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Seems like a good portion of the activity in the communities is reddit oriented. If the goal is leaving/hurting reddit, it seems we should be continuing on like it doesn't exist, instead of continuing to drive interest to the site. Thoughts?

I feel like I'm just about done since Reddit is pretty much irredeemable to me at this point. However, I think we've got at least another month of it to go before everybody's done.

There are plenty of places to talk about Reddit in other communities around here so it would be nice to focus on other topics in non Reddit related spaces.

Not a lot much else going on here, sadly.

Defederation wars are coming maybe...

I think it is fine to talk about developing news regarding Reddit just as we would any other social media site. Part of the issue I have with these threads though is that it's still basically the same comments being made. The big news revolves around the API decisions, and the really scummy leadership. That's what all of the comments really fall back to, understandably so. It would still be nice to hear some discussion about what former Redditors think about new developments, such as the recent threats to have the community vote out mods who keep their subreddits private

TF is Readit?

Yes, please! I can't wait for non reddit/lemmy/fediverse oriented subjects to rise to the top of the feed. I'm guessing it will take months.

It will change. When everything happened with Twitter and a number of people switched over to Mastodon, all people talked about on Mastodon was Twitter. Within a couple of months that shifted dramatically and now I come across much less Twitter-related content. Most of my mastodon feed now is just the topics that I’m interested in. Give it time.

I say we go a step further and make sure to at least mention Reddit in EVERY post so the web indexers start bringing up these threads when people search “blah blah blah reddit” because Google is terrible without adding reddit to the end of a search string.
