    There are about 5 years of my life on there, for some users 15+. Now, if you dropped your laptop with 15 years worth of memories on it, you damn sure would have hope you could still save the data, even if it’s obviously done for.

    Denial, at least for me. I still have a hard time wrapping my head around the fact that anyone could be that stupid and eager to destroy it’s most active part of the user base…

    And the fact that it’s Reddit, a Site I always preceived as community driven and kinda above those corporate shenanigans, I still have hopes some saner heads might prevail. Although that seems increasingly unlikely by the minute…

      Reddit is a VC backed startup so this was always going to happen. I am surprised it took so long, to be honest.

    I just hope there’s no power trippin edgelords - toxic sweaty mods here. And whoever is in charge(like a CEO) I hope is also a normal human being. All I ask from you is to work with the community not against it.

      That’s the fun of the Fediverse; there isn’t a CEO. You’re in charge if you want to be. Go setup your own instance if you find you don’t like the one you’re on, or find one whose admins you like. Don’t like Lemmy? Go write your own activitypub software to do the same stuff!

    I guess because there are a lot of people who just don’t care. Look at Twitter, Musk could do what he wants Twitter still has a big number of users.

    Also reddit has a huge and very active community. This is very hard to replace.

      I disagree with twitter, I wanted to continue using it despite the issues but the tweets and replies I was seeing was such a drop in quality that it naturally phased out of my routine, which I’ve from others in person that felt the same.

      Reddit is a sharper change for us, twitter kind of just declined out of being worthwile.

    I’ve being feeling that lately reddit had become full of repost bots and fake ads. Was there just because there was nowhere else to go

      I feel a similar way. The quality just kept going down and down to the point where I couldn’t tell what was real or not. Most just weren’t worth reading either way. Lemmy seems the same way now too. People are focusing on making “content” instead of trying to make higher quality posts.
