niche communities that don’t exist on lemmy.
This is the reason. I can get all the Linux discussion I want on Lemmy, but discussions about an Acura RSX? That community does not exist here.
There is zero car talk on Lemmy and it fucking sucks ass.
Well that’s just not true…
We talk about how much better the world would be without cars. That qualifies as car talk, right?
Reddit is just a bunch of bots, jerking each other purple. They don’t have any content worth locking.
Prediction: This change comes to life, people make an uproar about this. Then they forget this in a few days and continue using reddit.
This same old keeps happening with reddit, Twitter/X, etc.
Hopefully we do receive some refugees to Lemmy!
Reddit likely won’t die from one bad change, it’s going to slowly die to attrition as they keep putting shit like this in.
It’s been slowly dying from attrition . It might be gaining users, but meaningful interactions and content production is down from 3 years ago.
In other news, Lemmy will keep all its content open for free, making everything accessible to everyone.
