Someone recently asked if there was a neat way to see where all of the now broken down subreddits moved.
Some moved to Discord, some to Lemmy, and some are somewhere else.
This seems to be a good place to find your communities again: https://sub.rehab/

Using discord as a replacement is like permanently sorting by new. I really like the voting mechanic and that’s what set Reddit apart, along with subreddits.
It’s not functionally the same.
Yes, Discord is centrally managed just like Reddit and has the added disadvantage of not being publicly viewable.
While it’s a massive pain for a lot of reaaons, it’s also an advantage in many ways, reddit went wayy down hill due to more and more people coming to the site
If they wanted Discord, they could have gone Matrix
Exactly. Switching from Reddit to Discord is just switching from a website controlled by one evil corporation to one controlled by a different evil corporation. Discord is still in hyper-growth mode, so they aren’t going to be screwing over users yet. Reddit is in “cash out our chips” mode, so screwing over users for profit is the way to do it. In 2-3 years, the investors in Discord will start wanting to see revenue. That’s when they’ll start introducing user-hostile features.
