If we want this to work out make content do not just lurk - Lemmy.world

We can make this a great interesting place and more people will join

More importantly, talk about stuff besides Reddit!

I tried using Voat 6(?) years ago when there was a similar (but smaller-scale) protest. The fact that a lot of Voat users were those chased out of hate subs was part of the problem, but the other part of the problem was that half the content was "look how much better we are than reddit".

Discussion about reddit is fine (it is still a big site), but we need our own content too.

I tried to move over to Voat but it very quickly turned into a cesspit.

It's almost as if making a site dedicated to people too racist, sexist, antisocial, etc, for even Reddit's lax moderation policies, was a bad idea.

And that's before it became a central hub for literal treason.
