Most people here are probably already aware of the situation on Reddit. This is a thread to discuss it here.

    IMO, it would be best to leave r/flashlight in restricted mode forever, so people can still see the useful info. Then officially announce the transfer to Lemmy (or kbin), and just rebuild the community.

    At this point, completely opening r/flashlight again will make the community look weak, in the eyes of the R3ddit the company. In my honest opinion, of course.

      I was of this opinion and voted restricted mode in the previous poll, but this time I think I would opt to leave it open.

      Let the communities diverge. Hand the keys back and let the individuals reside wherever they choose. There is already a community here. Yes there is a wealth of information on Reddit, especially regarding build options and comparisons but why not ask the question again on Lemmy and get a more up-to-date, fresh opinion? If it’s modding or technical info BLF is the archive.

      Just my two pence.

        Thanks toadiesss. I guess we will all find out what happens, when the new poll ends.
