TechCrunch shouted out Lemmy and Kbin in their Reddit coverage today: Reddit CEO lashes out on protests, moderators and third-party apps - Beehaw

From the article: In response to Huffman’s comments, moderators are trying to find ways to make blackouts effective. Alternatively, some communities are also setting up servers on alternative sites like Lemmy and Kbin.

"And I think, on Reddit, the analogy is closer to the landed gentry: The people who get there first get to stay there and pass it down to their descendants, and that is not democratic.”

I love how this is suddenly only a problem for them now but has been something they defended for years previously.
