True Blue

In my view this isn’t the end of Reddit, but it is the beginning of the end. This situation will probably pass, but the lemmy devs and instance owners have already gotten useful feedback about how to handle situations like this, and what kinds of things would help lemmy and the fediverse grow. The next time something like this happens (and there will be a next time) they’ll be just that little bit more ready.

Although for me specifically, I don’t actually care too much if Reddit dies. I’m happy as long as there’s a community here. The best thing that seems to be coming out of this situation so far is that many subreddits are now getting lemmy community analogs for people to move to.

Ah, nice to see this one showing up. I feel like the Linux subreddits are natural ones to come over to lemmy. It fits with the whole foss ethos and all.

A suggestion I’ve seen is to add reddit.com to your ublock origin “my filters” page. It works great for me!
