It is tragic. But on the plus side I think this transition will be a lot smoother than trying to leave twitter since here you don’t have to individually find everyone you want to follow, just show up at the proper forums.
idk, i’m having kind of a hard time. i have a lot of niche subs on reddit that don’t seem to be on lemmy. i feel like i did when i first started reddit and just saw all the default pics/music/gaming subs
Well it can’t solve that stuff just not existing, but I think it’s easier to find your preferred subs once they exist than all your old twitter contacts on a new site
You can still use Reddit, just now many users have a motivation to diversify their information platforms. Fediverse does that, and only ask that your new content, discussions, and questions be added in the fediverse instead. To help growth here.
For example, I curious about SFF PC building and, yup, Reddit already had a sub for that. If I have future questions I’ll just post them on /m/technology instead.

I agree with this. As part of the Fediverse while it’s still small, it’s our job to build it up by creating content here.
