Please stop talking about reddit. If you want this to be the next reddit, I beg of you to stop mentioning it. Otherwise all this placewill be is a temporary hold over until we all just fall back on what we know cause we keep hammering in the name into our brain over and over again. I think the same sort of thing happened with the original “black out” of Twitter but we all came back to it because we kept thinking of Twitter in regards to whatever new site we tried. If you want Lemmy to succeed, let Lemmy be Lemmy
16 year club account here. This reminds me very much of earlier days Reddit. Both after the first migration from Digg in 2007 and the big one in 2010. We’re very much in a transition period and there are definitely some growing pains. Some will go back, others will use both for the time being, but I’m becoming increasingly optimistic about this being the way forward.
