nixCraft 🐧Reddit blackout protest is just like those online petitions. Both are unpredictable about the final results. What are you going to do when you miss r/funny. Use Lemmy? The truth is Reddit admins know there is no alternative. Reddit was ready when Digg 4 happened. I want Reddit to act friendly, but it isn't easy when you take investors' money. They want a return on their investments. It is better to stop using a centralized cloud for everything from SO to Reddit. Let us build independent forums
Domage@nixCraft #Lemmy, like #Mastodon months ago, is experiencing a user migration crisis, doubling its base from 50k to 100k users in one week. Granted, this pales in comparison to Reddit's >50M daily users.
Sure, Lemmy is still in its early stages, lacking stability and the mobile applications are non-existent.
However, I believe that Lemmy holds significant potential, as tens of thousands of enthusiastic users join the platform, looking to build a new online community
