Please stop talking about reddit. If you want this to be the next reddit, I beg of you to stop mentioning it. Otherwise all this placewill be is a temporary hold over until we all just fall back on what we know cause we keep hammering in the name into our brain over and over again. I think the same sort of thing happened with the original “black out” of Twitter but we all came back to it because we kept thinking of Twitter in regards to whatever new site we tried. If you want Lemmy to succeed, let Lemmy be Lemmy
It’s kinda funny that this thread is the first mention of Reddit I’ve seen on here in days.
I think the last major waves of people migrating were the blackout then prior to that the announcement of pricing.
The exact same thing came up on asklemmy or lemmy@lemmy.ml I forget which, telling people to shut up about Reddit. I think people settled in after a couple weeks and a lot of Reddit-specific discussion is relegated to the Reddit topic lemmy and kbin communities which are thriving now.
