Welcome to Lemmy former redditors
Thanks. I just switched - apparently just in time!
Me too friend!!
Yeah I signed in for the first time in like a year right after seeing this lol
The only subreddit you need is
r/redditseppuku
The revolution will be televised; behind a paywall.
The revolution will have a subscription.
You will not own the revolution and you will like it.
Thanks, I love you too.
Well, that’s the death of the free* forum. Went from BBS to newsgroups to phpBB to Reddit, each soft-killing its predecessor. But like WalMart killing Main Street, Reddit is going to kill the free forum.
Thank goodness for Lemmy and other free* social network software.
*free with the asterisk because we know it’s not free, we are enjoying the service that others volunteer to pay for.
Lemmy will need ads to support individual servers, eventually, when they’re not attached to another org (like a server CNN would run for just outgoing news dissemination). The rest of them, with bills and needing to eat, may need to go to ads.
I support proper ads that do not get priority placement and aren’t in-your-face.
I support prioritization of profile migration so we can vote with our feet if a particular server’s ad volume and content offends our sensibilities.
But I’m just saying I fully expect some ads are gonna happen, and I hope we can prevent full enshittification when that happens.
No, it will never have ads. If the devs put ads in, it will get forked. If server admins put in ads, they will be defederated. That’s nonnegotiable if you want a free (as in libre) fediverse.
Mastodon is way bigger than Lemmy and it doesn’t need ads. Donations and subscriptions (for severs that choose that path) are enough.
lol, now you will have to pay to get banned.
You’re new here, did you get banned? Welcome!
Thanks. Was banned in a couple subs, but mainly I haven’t left because I was looking for a replacement… and I found it.
Well I think we’re gonna see another influx
Yea, I’m one.
one of us one of us
Seems like a bad time to be introducing such a thing in the immediate future when European users are already seeking out alternatives to US tech giants and US users are losing their jobs and facing rising grocery prices.
there’s no way to monetize lemmy, right?
just making sure i’m on the right liferaft…
there’s probably a way to monetise everything but with the numbers of Linux people (yes we know you use arch shush) and anti-capitalists, i think we’re safe?
Time to move on over here I guess.
Paywall forum, what can go wrong ?
Just jumped the ship at the right time. The API wars were just a preview…
Each time I visit a reddit link and see the word “Deleted” in OPs post, my heart fills with joy.
Recent recruit from Reddit. Finally made the jump. Love the apps like Boost, Thunder and Voyager.
It’ll be the porn they charge for.
They know only wankers will give them money.
What’s funny about that is Reddit is mostly just an advertising front for onlyfans at this point
So Reddit wants to move to a pay model, which would mean they’d have banking information on record for any user that might be of interest to the federal government.
No thank you.
Imagine paying actual money for shitty memes and mean comments.
