Very smart! In a way this is good news. It suggests that editing to overwrite is effective - you aren't seeing your old content restored, but the edited version. Agree with the ridiculousness of having to delete again and again.

The newcomers are reproducing what they did on reddit.
Yup. Two words: anime titties.
(Edit: for those who weren't from reddit, r/anime_titties was a running in-joke being the name of world news that specifically avoided a US and European focused POV.)
shreddit does this - both the $15 shreddit.com and the free scripts available from github
shreddit does use the API tho, something to keep in mind.
FYI we are tracking GDPR request timelines: https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/50981/Reddit-Data-Retrieval-Request-timeline-thread
kbin is newer and less polished. But yeah I personally recommend kbin over lemmy for exactly the reasons you posted.
Here's a better one that points to a connection between protest engagement and lower ad revenue : https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/88139/Reddit-traffic-returning-normal-sort-of
One idea is to create your own single user instance rather than signing up at another. I've started working on that, see https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/92059/Why-we-need-to-move-on-from-kbin-social#entry-comment-393077 (bug in the comments means it just takes you to the front page for now but go to the last page and you'll see my comment).
I asked https://kbin.social/m/FindAKbin/t/104416/A-magazine-to-discuss-and-trade-tips-on-setting-up but it seems there's no magazine yet for folks who want to do this, so I created one, https://kbin.social/m/CreateAKbin and will be posting my updates there soon.
Well.. this is not quite accurate. It seems that people who are on only to shitpost and protest make less ads revenue for reddit, see https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/112071/Reddit-protest-plunges-user-engagement-site-activity-and-ad-portal
The folks of rblind aren't fooled. That's why they set up their own lemmy instance already and are recommending migrating off the subreddit.
Which app is that?
Ditto. This is exactly what I did.
More the second one. I joined that lemmy sub using my kbin
I could it as a win either way. If they're frustrated with reddit, they leave, and engagement goes down.
