Originally, the protest was planned to be 48 hours. However, after a shambolic AMA held by Reddit’s CEO, it has become clear to us that Reddit doesn’t intend to act in good faith. When the CEO is willing to lie and spread libellous claims about another third-party developer, and then try double down by vilifying them, again, in an AMA, despite being proven as a liar by the developer through audio recordings, that’s when we knew what we were up against. Therefore, the subreddit will be privatised until such time as a reasonable resolution is proposed.

        One way to help out is open a couple of your fav subs if they don’t exist yet! I have done 2 so far and I hope we can also have a decentralized spread of subs here.

        We really have to spread the word that lemmy.ml is not the only intance and size isn’t a gauge for how active an instance is. I’m worried lemmy.ml will not be able to handle that many users who may be coming, and a high concentration of comms there would mean a lot would suffer if lemmy.ml crashes…

          That’s a killer feature that Lemmy absolutely needs: the ability to migrate. Migrate accounts, and migrate communities. That would go a long way to distributing load, and providing high availability.

            I haven’t used mlem. I’m on Android and we have Jerboa. Hopefully an mlem user can answer your question.

            On Jerboa we just have to input which instance we want to log into.
