I myself am really on the fence about this.
I hate what Reddit has done, as I was removed as a moderator on my sub. But I much prefer the UI to Lemmy so far. I’m also having a hard time understanding how this all works. I was familiar with Reddit, and it is obviously a way more active community.
But I also used Apollo and hate how they’ve done him so dirty.
Will you guys return if Reddit rights it’s wrongs?
No. This whole Fediverse feels like Reddit did in the beginning. Real conversations. Real sense of community. No pointless bloat or mindless repetition. I started actually participating because I’m not drowned out with a million ridiculous generic comments minutes after a post. Reddit will undoubtedly continue, but not with me as a part of it.
This right here. For the past few years everyone on reddit just talks past each other in a race for karma. Rarely does anything with value break through the sea of memes and shitposts. If nothing else I’m enjoying the smaller scale here. I’m seeing and reading actual news articles again instead of the content pandering to the lowest common denominator
