I think it’s looking very promising. I’ll agree with others here that if the users come on, some of the bugs get worked out, and an Apollo like app gets created Id be happy to call this home.
I’ve been a serious Reddit user since the digg incident so it really is like the end of an era.
Also “a serious Reddit user since the digg incident” and won’t be going back. There are some communities I’ll miss, but I look forward to rebuilding them here.
Spez really really fucked up on this one. A few tweaks and mobile app with the same no-bullshit styles like narwhal, apollo, and RIF on android and this place wins every time
Agreed, and I hope so. But this “migration” from Reddit already happened before. Remember Voat? Very promising, but failed unfortunately. I hope Lemmy instances could support the massive incoming of Reddit users.
The problem with that migration was its anti-censorship nature, which naturally led to bigots flooding voat. Here, it’s a sitewide protest against changes that hurt most power-users of the website, which means alternatives won’t just become political echo-chambers.

Same on all points, I was over there for 15 years because it wasn’t like that - that’s why we all left digg and also why we’re here. It got sucky

Faar less Nazis so far on lemmy, which was the main issue with Voat
