I can't even load comments on this post. Who knows if anyone can even read what I'm writing now lol.
It's happening! This is what ~~a DDOS attack~~ peak performance looks like.
For some of us the final day was weeks ago. It’s time to let go and focus on what you have. Why are we all still obsessing over ducking Reddit. It’s over. Done.
*ladies and gentlemen, this isn’t reddit pal!
another RIF user checking in. Good to have a place to come to. Let's hope this turns into something really good
R.I.P. RIF.
i'm doubting there will be a large exodus... why wouldn't they be here already?
There will be some but I doubt that it will be huge enough for Reddit to care. People will use their app, generate ad money. People willing to have ads in their experience probably have a higher tolerance for low quality posts, so any moderation changes likely won't be killer. That's my pessimistic take.
I've personally been splitting my time a bit on mobile until my beloved RIF dies, then I'll be here 100%.
Rest in peace beautiful RIF 😥 10+ years went by quickly! Time for new adventures now with both old and hopefully new family at Lemmy!
Change is good. I'm looking forward to the fresh take Lemmy will have.
First comment. Looking forward to the new(ish) community full of familiar faces.
I have a weird request to the other Redfugees: I had considered going through and nuking my entire post history for all of my accounts. But then I realized that a lot of the advice that I've given on /linux and /python would be lost. I'm not a master at either, but I like to think that I've helped people out.
So before deleting everything as a (justified!) middle finger to a terrible CEO, take into account that what you've written is a part of a tapestry of internet history. 99.99% is trite. But you never know what future generations will find interesting or useful.
Just my $0.02.
