At 6.18k upvotes, this is higher than the most upvoted Reddit post in July 2008, three years after its launch. Lemmy.world is like, one month old as far as I know?
Lemmy is actually a few years old now. I couldn’t find exactly when it was started, but it was at least 3 years ago. Although from my understanding it was a fairly barren place until it obviously blew up a month ago
Lemmy.world only started in June though, that’s what I was referring to. Although yes, if you count the whole “lemmyverse” as a single platform it’s pretty much as old as Reddit was at the time.
A community was demonized on Reddit. They built Lemmy, time and money. They freely handed their work over to anyone that wanted, and knowing that such scaling meant demonization once again. Eventually, as tensions rose, and after significant internal discussion and an unenforceable referendum vote, they decided it was probably best to rip the band aid off by individually choosing to instigate the collective’s hypocritic perceptions.
You don’t know. And, that’s exactly how they’d have it.

My mistake! I misread your comment, thinking you said just Lemmy instead of Lemmy.world
