You gotta respect the dedication on some level

I find it funny that a 3rd party app can be "profitable" but reddit cant be profitable without alienating a sizeable chunk of their userbase.

Reddit has increasingly become a cesspit of racism and bigotry anyways, and I find Im going there less and less.

I need to get used to how lemmy works and find my 3d printing people here.

I'm so glad they're unwavering in their commitment to foster growth of the fediverse!

First comment here. Sad to Reddit go but also it's their own fault for pushing me away

Man, this is so dumb; unfortunately, if they open up all the subs, people are just gonna rush back because there's no reason to try to make anything else work.

Yeah, this sounds like the reddit I've come to know 😒

I guess Lemmy will be getting bigger then

The disrespect that the average person gets from corporations these days is fucking unbelievable. This current thing with reddit is something especially BS. ALL of the work in the various subreddits were done by the community, supported by third-party apps ALSO built by the community.
