I'm doing my part. I hope others do an exodus and not a hiatus.

There's enough content here on lemmy to scratch my itch to scroll

For sure. I'm enjoying it, but reddit's downfall really depends on how many divest from it and can join us here. I think it'll be fine because people are coming and there will be guides to help folks navigate, but only time will tell

there will be no "downfall" and i think that attitude will make things harder for a place like this to thrive

it needs to be kinda its own thing. we need more than one place for this type of shit. Reddit is fine honestly. they are a business (maybe a shitty one) but thats the game

it just sucks that there isint another option, so when people started jumping ship i joined em.

i just dont want one mega corp to own the data on the internet as much as i can help it (which admittedly is not much) so this seemed like a real easy way to try

I think there’s a lot of us who are fed up. Reddit was an important part of my life but I haven’t been back since the AMA and I don’t intend to.

I'm waiting for reddit to send me my personal data, so I can make my comments unuseable for anything, I guess they either are wise of it or there are a lot more requests than usual, but I'm done with reddit. And there is more and more big name sites i'm just... not wanting to interact with anymore.

Yeah same i just want to backup my stuff before getting rid of it all

[–] genuineparts@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That and I want to completely destroy my history so it hurts anyone using reddit for AI Training, just replace all my comments with markov chain nonsense
