    If Reddit goes down, what articles will pcmag decide to write about then?

        I mean sure posts about Reddit makes us seem like the bitter ex, but they are to be expected, since it’s the only thing all Lemmy users have in common: Being ex-Redditors. It will stop naturally with time.

          Although, on Reddit we were always talking about musk and Twitter. Dumpster fires when the AIC (asshole in charge) deserves the harm coming to their profits and their website, it’s newsworthy and juicy content.

          Although I do agree that it will slow to a trickle and then eventually stop. Not because the content stops being interesting to us, but because reffit will ultimately probably win in the end, they’re IPO will be profitable, they’ll continue down this enshittification road until FB make a Reddit competitor and then everyone that didn’t care about the API thing because they were too busy watching reruns of the Big Bang theory will move there. It’s the circle of tech life, eventually fb will own the internet

            Though if Twitter goes under, I’m sure Facebook will have a hard time explaining why they aren’t a monopoly. That has been taken seriously before.

          It was the same with Digg on reddit back in the day. Like you say, it’ll die down.

        Hilarious! You gotta admit though, it’s kind of like Watching Pawn Stars on the History Channel. Like wtf is this?

      Probably things posted here, except they’ll have some trouble sorting out the instancing stuff at first

      I got quotes by a PC gamer article after commenting about a random , obscure battlefield rip off was announced for steam a couple of months ago.

      I was very surprised upon finding it after a username google.

      Thanks….I guess?! My comment was just a random nothing burger (well what’s changed there). Well done ‘journalists’!
