Man, if you told me a couple months ago, that I would stop using Reddit, I wouldn't believe you. I've been on it over a decade. It took Spez ONE MONTH to undo everything and make that a reality.

I wonder how many people who didn't understand Reddit that well and just used it to scroll r/aww just woke up to disabled third party apps one day and figure that Reddit went under. I have to imagine they lost less internet literate users.
Gonna be on Apollo for the last few seconds.
First comment. Looking forward to the new(ish) community full of familiar faces.
I have a weird request to the other Redfugees: I had considered going through and nuking my entire post history for all of my accounts. But then I realized that a lot of the advice that I've given on /linux and /python would be lost. I'm not a master at either, but I like to think that I've helped people out.
So before deleting everything as a (justified!) middle finger to a terrible CEO, take into account that what you've written is a part of a tapestry of internet history. 99.99% is trite. But you never know what future generations will find interesting or useful.
Just my $0.02.
I already nuked mine, and it was loads of tutorials/helpful comments. That was the most tangible way I could f them over. I also deleted images on other sites that explained things so that even if they restore my comments and posts like they have been doing (5 times so far) nothing of value will be gained. They fucked around, and hopefully they are gonna find out.
lemmy may have growth pains, but I don't expect reddit exit to be a crash more than a slow burn.
freedom!!! bye reddit.
Sometimes things have to burn to make room for new things to blossom. I hope this is one of those times.
10 years on RIF and Apollo... but this here feels great. Glad to have such a nice alternative without the baggage
Started on RiF but changed to Boost. I'd say I was angry Reddit is doing this but honestly I'm just sad this is how it ends up.
It's been an honour, everyone. o7
It's been an honor folks o7
