As the Reddit war rages on, community trust is the casualty

Ars spoke with community mods about where Reddit goes from here.

@arstechnica I’m quite liking https://lemmy.world/ for the same reasons I like Mastodon vs Elon’s World of Hate.
Lemmy.World - A generic Lemmy server for everyone to use.

Lemmy

@Drunemeton I'm also liking it. Been checking daily. 3 days clean off reddit.
@Pixlbabble “3 days clean”? 🤣😂🤣 We can do this! 👍❤️💪
@Drunemeton @Pixlbabble Yehhh Lemmy crew let's go!

@dryroastedlemon @Pixlbabble I feel that “Lemmy let’s go,” coming from a lemon, might have a certain bias to it…

But I’ll not plant the seed of doubt and become bitter about it, instead I’ll squeeze it for the wholesome support it contains, and raise a glass to cheer on the Lemmyverse!

#toomuch ?

@Drunemeton @Pixlbabble Haha, no affiliation here! Just your friendly neighborhood lemon :)

I have read some concerns on Lemmy, but well... I guess I'll do some more investigating. For now it's just avoiding Reddit for me. Kbin also looks pretty cool, but it's been kind of slow for me.

@dryroastedlemon @Pixlbabble Concerns? Do tell if you’re okay sharing…

@Drunemeton @Pixlbabble Mostly just stuff on how it's not really private, but I'm of the mind that once something's on the internet (especially on social media) you've already thrown complete privacy out the window.

Also some weird stuff about the authors, but that's just something I saw other people say and I'm not comfortable simply parrotting.

Also the dev team is tiny (two people I think?). I hope it'll expand a little more soon - it's probably necessary with the user influx.

I've already #SoldMyPrivacy and I've #SoldMySoul.

I belong to you now and everyone else on the internet and #WaybackMachine
