Well they can have fun, but no FOSS apps means no me, so I won't. Long live infinity.

at least it gave Lemmy the kick it needed, and the quantity and quality of posts will simply never be the same. Also Reddit, FUCK YOUR REDESIGN AND FUCK YOUR APP. Javascript bloat that doesn't respect you.

I suspect many of us are here to stay. I for one burned the bridge behind me when I left. I serve a new master now. Long live the Fediverse.

Kinda like Cortez burning his ships... Motivation

[–] kozel@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Are there any more links between Cortez and Fëanor?

I was a Relay user but I'm pretty damn easy to please tech wise so if the 3rd party app shutdown existed in a vaccuum I'd probably be fine with the allegedly shitty official app. What I can't condone is the moneygrabbing and end-user belittling behavior of the reddit execs so I am not going back. If lemmy doesn't pan out then I'll re-learn bookreading and be better for it.

Guess what: Reddit needs its users a lot more than users need Reddit.

Fuck Reddit, all my homies lemmy.

the blackout is like if a union went on strike but agreed to come back to work in two days regardless of whether any of their demands were met. it's hard to see this affecting reddit at all tbh

In my short few hours of using Lemmy it's really grown on me. Feels much more like being a part of something and it's refreshing.

Also Rexxit ☠️

Well not after Sync goes down.

I'm not using their shitty official app. I've tried it before and it honestly makes me question how reddit is even popular when so many users are accessing it through that mess. Like, this is the only experience for many, and it's pretty rough.
