Here here! For all it’s weaknesses, I’m learning to love Lemmy and it’s strengths.
It’s gonna take a little getting used too, and there are some subs that it’ll take awhile to replace
But I haven’t been on Reddit since Apollo stopped working on the 30th so it’s somethin
Me either.
Only way I’ll go back is if they oust Huffman as CEO
I’d love that, but I can’t see myself going back without Apollo or some other third party app that doesn’t suck
10+ years from now reddit will be at reduced popularity, but still a major player in the social media scene. i say this because i left other social media sites before the term “social media” existed and those old sites are still chugging along, making money for the new owners despite a 75%-ish drop in users and content.
i’ve been wantin to leave reddit for a while and the changes gave me the final straw i needed to make the jump; you should be leaving reddit because it benefits you somehow. there’s nothing you can do to affect reddit unless you have enough money to affect a change in its direction.
It will probably resemble myspace: https://myspace.com/
As a worst case scenario; I bet it’ll becoming more like digg
Reddit’s actually less of a major player than it feels like when you’re in it.
Look at its place in The Internet Map: http://internet-map.net/#6-146.44287523142916-86.10421783299574
Best case scenario is that in the next ten years reddit becomes the equivalent of bing. Still around, but who really gives a shit
Just miss Apollo and some of the great communities, all the rest I won’t miss.
I miss having a small pixel pall to play with while scrolling
Check out Edgar Allen Typoe over here
use wefwef.app ! just like apollo. i hardly skipped a beat moving over and browsing all
I know, it’s just that Selig was such an amazing dev, and that apollo was just a lot more fleshed out than wefwef currently.
Wefwef is still amazing though, and that it’s this good, so quickly, is mindblowing.
+1 for Memmy and Mlem as well!
Cheers mate
