RedditMigration

Hey all, I recently left reddit like many of you. I have a question regarding lemmy and the fediverse on the history of banning and defederation. I have noticed several posts calling for varying communities to be disconnected. were these removal requests as prevalent before the mass migration? Usually I am all for communities...

This is honestly probably for the best. It’s a really bad idea that we’ve let reddit monopolize niche knowledge

Given how Reddit has responded to the whole API, community-mods, etc. fiasco, I felt like they're doing some of the more effective things in not only destroying their communities but also their IPO valuation....

Honestly, nobody even looks at other people's Karma. I didn't care much about it. Did people really care so much baout Karma that they mourn about it here, or miss it, or used to farm it?...

I run a decent sized sub. I’ve noticed the last few days that all my sticky posts that say where else you can find us are getting mass reported. I usually have like 6 reports a week. I’m getting a report on every post made that gets the sticky all of a sudden. I just took the word “Lemmy” out and we’ll see if that...

Please let me know when we get there! We can do this!...

Fake internet points. Karma. Whatever you call it… does Lemmy have the equivalent? There is an undeniable motivator in trying to earn more karma as a badge of honor....

Both of my devices can’t launch the app anymore. Looks like its the end of an era boys and girls

I'm new here. I'm using connect for Lemmy on Android....

I can't find an example post now, but I have seen people link to Reddit and it takes them to a wrapper or something

I've just joined Lemmy and I need something to fill that RIF shaped hole.

I want to change all my reddit comments to say I'm migrating to Lemmy/Kbin. I think this is more effective than deleting comments, as I've heard rumors reddit is restoring deleted comments. I can't find a good script to do that. What's everyone else using to do that? Thanks!...

Looks like Apollo is done. RIP Apollo and goodbye Reddit

And make sure not to click on any links. If enough people use chatgpt or other LLM's to generate comments that are wordy but clearly just filler, it'll give advertisers pause and tank the value of the site as training data. Reddit's response will probably be to start banning users it thinks are doing this but normal users will...

I realized I interacted / posted / commented less and less on reddit these last couple of years. Couldn't even tell you why exactly. Now I've been here for a week and, I don't know, I just like interacting again... Hope it stays like this for a while :)

Something that I really appreciate after moving here from Reddit: I can finally edit titles!...

Does federation have a bit of a learning curve? No doubt....

Narwhal developer believes they can keep the third party iOS Reddit app running with a subscription....

Title is pretty much it. Woke up this morning to an email in the inbox with a reddit message notification from u/reddit...

I had been thinking about leaving Reddit for months before the API announcement came. I was tired of the toxic content, also tired of being drawn in by it....

Just realized that the other day....

I'm considering rewriting all of my comments, but I want to do this carefully and correctly because I'd eventually want to delete the account, so I wouldn't be able to make changes...

If you are usually a reddit lurker and are on here, it would be cool if you can try and engage with communities for a bit, just to try and get the ball rolling :)

Most people aren’t even thinking of moving to reddit alternatives. Users have a lot of power in this situation. Just move your community to Lemmy or Kbin. It’s not that hard.
