There’s less Reddit meta content on Reddit, why did I come here?
Just to disinguage firther, send your messages on reddit thru chatGPT first, tell it to “speak like an redditor who secretly wants to sell you reddit gold” or other sutch oddities

Rework
I do not care about the pixels on some reddit nonsense site. I hope reddit admins remove anything critical and people will simply stop using it.to be honest about the upsides of reddit gold, keep negative tone, be verry casual, be verry shortresponce
I couldn’t care less about the pixels on that Reddit nonsense site. But hey, gotta admit, Reddit Gold does have some perks (if you’re into that stuff). Still, it won’t change my mind – hoping the admins take down any critical stuff, and maybe, just maybe, folks will finally wise up and ditch it. #UnimpressedAF
I think you seem to have a particular dislike for a type of post. Just a wild guess
I’m surprised a bit because this place has a higher median age. At this point, that kind of stuff seems super childish to me, and I’m not trying to have this become the v2 of what was over there. There was SO much echo chamber junk going on there that’s it’s nice to open a topic here and have great diversity in opinion and thought. I’m looking forward to hearing less about Reddit on here, but understand it will take some time for people to either get over it or go back.
I want lemmy to have a hacker news mentality on posts and comments. Only post something if it will help continue a discussion. In the beginning that’s mostly what it was and it was great. Now it’s turning into Reddit V2. If that’s what people want then it’s fine, I just thought it’d be more like old Reddit where we only upvote content that added to a discussion.
Then…leave if you don’t like it?
Idunno. I’m mildly annoyed with the crossposting spam, but not surprised at the behavior. The internet has lent itself incredibly well to tribalism ever since its widespread adoption, so there’s always going to be some amount of “New platform is my god, old platform suck roach testicles.” I just hope it does die down instead of being a running undercurrent here like Spez married into the kardashians.
absolutely correct. unfortunately the higher median age does not translate to higher emotional qoutent.
Like a child holding unto a grudge that all the other people who are involved has already forgotten and moved on.
You did just add more…
I would love to see reddit die, but we all know that won’t happen unless someone finds a magic teapot.
Yea seriously, for people supposedly wanting to leave Reddit they sure seem intent on giving it tons of traffic
Forced to leave reddit is not the same as wanting too.
they were not forced, they had a choice. they could have given in to peer pressure or have followed others like a sheep into lemmy, but no one forced them.
No one was forced to leave Reddit. They didn’t say you couldn’t use their site, they just said you had to use their app to do so and you CHOSE not to.
Now I clearly support that decision since I made the same one myself but don’t act like it wasn’t a decision we made.
Turning the place into a capitalist shithole forced me to leave when the only way I accessed the site for 13 years disappeared. That was not my choice. But you know that because you’re disingenuous, not stupid, right?
Again, you were not forced, an option for access was taken but you were not forbidden from visiting Reddit, they still provided ways for you to access, you CHOSE not to use them and to go elsewhere for your social media.
Someone is being disingenuous here but it isn’t me
When the content of the site changes due to action of the administration that removes access to the content that was previously consumed that is not a choice of the user.
You’re right, you’re not being disingenuous, you’re being the other option, stupid.
Lol the access wasn’t removed, your account is still there, the content is still there, you can go use your account and consume the content right now if you CHOSE to do so. But instead you CHOSE to not use the tools and account available to you and CHOSE to make an account here and call people names here.
I got downvoted here because I asked why the front page is basically 50+% about Reddit. I’m so sick of hearing about reddit here, can’t users make their own content or are we just going to discuss reddit for years? so pathetic
Reddit was the same way after the Digg migration. Everyone was talking about Digg for a while. Over time, Digg mentions became more and more rare.
To be fair, it’s like therapy for a breakup, and we all know who the ex is.
It’s like shared group therapy for a whole lot of people who had the same abusive ex
And unfortunately there are fresh breakups every day. So for some it’s been a while but others it’s been 24 hours.
If you are ready to move on, mess with your blocklist to remove reddit, see you first pioneer! As to venture out myself, if you find anything cool, mention me
I feel like saying that Lemmy isn’t your personal army
I recognize a Voyager app user when i see one, great
Huge “stalking your ex” energy
More like missing your homeland after it was taken over.
Stalking your home country after your Ex was taken over? /sSorry to step on toes
The wall of fucking spez is finmy, but I find it FAR funnier to see how something that was one of reddit’s most popular things ever just a few months ago is NOTICABLY less popular. All of the biggest communities that were represented on the drawing earlier this year are nowhere to be seen. All that’s left this time around is just random disconnected drawings and massive flags. The soul is gone.
So yeah, stop fucking spamming the canvas and just let it be empty and soulless. It sends a bigger message.
They were stupid to bring it back anyways, it only succeeded the second time because enough time had passed for the people that remembered it and there were plenty of new people to participate. This time neither is true
It seems like they brought it back to drive up traffic. They know people will put those things on it, but they can edit all they want and going over there to “protest participate” still drive traffic to their site. In 6 months when they tell investors how successful the last place event wad, no one is going to want to see the final picture, they’re just going to look at the numbers.
Place was stupid when we were on reddit, its sure as he’ll not worth going back for
5 years seems like a reasonable time to be fair. One year definitely not, at least not to be meaningful anymore.
There was a lot of talk about the admins erasing stuff. My guess is they’ll ensure it doesn’t look too empty.
I’m ignoring it, though. I don’t want to give them traffic on a platform they can control. The real question is why can’t we set up something similar here?
This isn’t even originally from Reddit… It used to be called “drawball”.
Super annoying but a great time to bring up Lemmy’s crossposting feature! If the image is hosted nonlocally and posted separately, Lemmy can automatically combine the posts and show it as crosspost links. Seems like this feature should work for local media as well but does not seem to in this case. Now this could be user error or this may be a place that the feature can be improved.
Does this work for link shares as well? There’s multiple android and gaming instances that often have duplicate content shared.
I think it specifically works for links. Doesn’t work for text posts, at least as far as I can tell.
You came here because we need more soldiers
I just came in general.
I’m doing my part 😂
That’s the spirit! Carry on soldier
Service means citizenship!
I just started reading that this week!

Leave then? Lemmy isn’t here to cater to you, and it’s fledgling. Sounds like you desperately need what Reddit has, so there you go
I do not care about the pixels on some reddit nonsense site. I hope reddit admins remove anything critical and people will simply stop using it.
