It really feels like Lemmy is alive because of you.

When I first checked out Lemmy, I wasn’t expecting there to be so much content, so much discussion, and so much community. But I’ve spent the better part of two days glued to my screen, browsing content all day. I’ve seen so many posts, so many interesting discussions about the fediverse, and of course, plenty of memes. It really feels like the start of something incredible.

I’ve gotta get back to work soon, but wow. I think this whole fediverse thing really is the next step for social media. If I find some extra time, I’ll definitely consider contributing to Lemmy’s source code to help this project and the FOSS ecosystem grow.

    As someone who works in IT, this is very unfortunate. While I don’t agree with what Reddit is doing, I don’t think we should scorch the site. Its an immense archive of information that can be referenced.

      It a dilemma isn’t it. If you had a business partner that decided to change the terms of the relationship so that you felt you had to leave would you let them keep the intellectual property to allow them still to make money from whilst you had nothing?

      I thought about it long and hard and decided that I would take all my information as an archive and remove it from reddit. Once we have an alternative I will be more than happy to upload it to another resource.
