what the fuck happened to the internet.
Capitalism got to it. Pretty simple I would say.

Someone suggested that I request the community through !community_requests@lemmy.ml which, by looking at the previous posts and/or comments, seems to be working fine for people.
I will have to try and get the community back from the dead.
I had this discussion in here before and I think it's for the better that the majority doesn't leave reddit, for both sides.
The vast majority of redditors are lurkers. It's a small minority that actually care enough to post the content and engange in conversations. Coincidentally, this same minority is the only one that cares enough to leave so I am expecting the most engaging people to migrate to other platforms like this one right here and I expect that Reddit is going to be left with lurkers and no one to drive the communities forward.
Granted, they will still be able to sell ads to lurkers but who cares? That's not why most of us were in Reddit.
I was there to get more news and educate myself. If that's gone, I'm gone. I'm happy to do this here, as well.
#3. A class mate of my sister lent it to us and we didn't put it down for at least 1-2 months.
Although I can say my favorite game is Oracle of Seasons.
Yeah I'm out for good.
I have requested the moderation of one familiar community of mine here and intent on putting in the effort here.
I have also contributed to the lemmy github in the form of pull requests.
If reddit doesn't care about the users I won't. I will care for something that offers something back to me and the community.
Reddit is going to get so much money when it goes IPO that it couldn't care less about its users and/or 3rd party devs.
I think I might have had more than 100 hours on this when I was REALLY young. I used to play the hell out of this game and I can't wait to play it in its new form again!
Thank you for the information!
but the majority will put up with shit
The majority of people in Reddit don't provide any value to conversation ~~of~~or information. We shouldn't really be sad that passive consumers don't follow the migration to Lemmy or more accurately to Fediverse.
I used reddit to get information and read news from active users and to engage in conversations within these topics.
People who won't follow us from Reddit, wouldn't have anything good to offer to this platform anyway so I don't think we should care to be honest.
Nothing of value was lost.
Yeah, even some documentation sections look like manifestos but you can't disagree to be honest.
Reddit and the top media brought it on themselves.
DM? I can't even use the app since last night.
I am logging in fine, I can see my avatar and username but every action that requires logging in, like commenting, viewing subscribed communities, etc just tells me "Login First" while I am already login.
Each time this happens I have to clear all data from the application on my phone and log back in and then after ~15 minutes of usages it crashes again and I have to reset everything again.
