Interesting side effect that this will probably kill off some of the Reddit repost bots over here

well, I'm a new user.

I've been churning accounts on reddit for a long time because you get banned by some subs just for posting or subscribing to other subs, then you post there not remembering the preemptive ban and bam, permaban. fed up with that noise, and having to churn accounts like a fucking outlaw.

I'm happy with how it is now. There's still a bunch of power mad mods here, but, by and large, it's so much better than that cesspit.

I think a handful but, not a another max exodus.

Nah, I don't really think so. People who use Reddit don't use RSS or the API.

I kinda like that they're becoming more openly hostile. It's fun to watch.

Closed systems and the degradation of the network. Connecting to the information super highway is going to become Mad Max

God bless you, Lemmy.

Part of me hopes so, part of me does not.

On the one hand, I'm finding that the turnover for new posts doesn't seem to be as great as on Reddit; once I go through my digest here: that's it. Of course, with an influx of new people come the riffraff.

it's gonna bring over a few more techie folks. yay?

i think people will relent, and make a account to login instead. tiktok, instagram,fb did this.

some will move here though.

the only other way is reddit starts banning alot of people again, but then they will just lose too much USER-generated content for AI again.

A dev team that is serious about growing the platform.
