That will increase the traffic and comments on Reddit, and improve the numbers on their IPO.

I was talking about the basement-dwelling elitist neckbeards, not about any redditor. Sorry if I didn't express myself clearly.

It's the right community. I guess this would also work on !chat@beehaw.org

Isn't this meme copy-pasted from somewhere else?

better than "inheriting" the years of terrible jokes that already are on reddit

[–] Ultra980@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (8 children)

No. Shitty jokes like "I also choose this guy's dead wife"

Hopefully the annoying redditors go back into their hole like you said, and those who want to preserve the Lemmy "culture" (like you and I) stay.

I agree with the "Edit:" part.

I'm not saying that the new Lemmy users should go to Reddit, I'm talking about the average (annoying and cringe) Reddit user not using reddit (or not visiting those subs) during the blackout (possibly also having an existential crysis in the meantime), then returning to their usual life in the basement.

 

Hello! A lot of people are discussing the recent Reddit changes (I'm also a Reddit refugee), but I think there are some reasons why a mass exodus from Reddit won't be good for Lemmy:

  • servers would crash The reddit "hivemind" would move to Lemmy The shitty jokes would continue here
  • just check r/redditmoment. Do you want that to become c/lemmymoment?
  • right now the community here is big enough that there are enough posts to keep us entertained, but small enough to get to interact multiple times with the same people and not get drowned in a sea of posts/comments The Lemmy community rn is also formed of at least mildly tech-savvy people (that could figure out the whole instances thing), that isn't the case for Reddit

As some people mentioned, many people will just forget what happened after the blackout (unless it becomes permanent), so a mass exodus also seems unlikely.

What do you think about this?

EDIT: I'm not talking about denying every Reddit application, I just hope the annoying redditors go back into their hole, just like @JTurtle said.
