I hope we get better content. I’m really tired of all the posts on the frontpage being meta. Like i had to scroll to find anything about the student loan news. I go to reddit and boom I get actual content still.
… i want conversations about things that aren’t lemmy or reddit. … memes are cool but man most of the frontpage that isn’t meta is memes. … Fingers crossed it gets better soon.
I agree… but this is probably the last big reddit thing for a while, so I think the reddit and lemmy stuff will die down from now
Got the message on BR about an hour ago.
Same, definitely a bummer. The official reddit app is so awful. Lemmy it is…
I had been a Baconreader Premium user for 10 years, kinda sad to see it go.
I’m here because baconreader died. Hi everyone!
I was still using Slide, I was hoping it was under the radar enough that it would squeak by but nope. Goodbye Reddit. I was user 4163 16 years ago, and now it’s time to get the fediverse up and going.
Slide for Lemmy already has an alpha version
I deleted my Reddit account.
Not going back.
But it’s sad…
I’m here from using Joey for Reddit. I’m surprised it seems like it wasn’t as popular as the other third party apps. It was great for me
Hopefully Lemmy continues to grow and we get more content…
Been a redditor since 2010, RiF user from about 2015 on, then Apollo user since 2020. There’s a few work related subs I’ll still visit occasionally on a web browser (using old.reddit of course) but other than that I’m done with it. On the bright side - I should be more productive and on my phone less!
Sync is dead. Long live sync.
My Relay app still seems to be working
A few apps that have a smaller amount of users have been granted a delay in which they can set up a subscription scheme.
We don’t know yet what the subscription cost is going to be and whether the whole thing will be sustainable. It’s not clear to me for example what will happen if the users/traffic for these apps eventually rises (which is bound to happen if they’re the only ones left standing). Or why a deal couldn’t be reached with the large apps too.
Not to mention the whole sour taste, a couple months ago if Reddit had come out and said “we’re putting all ‘power user’ stuff behind a paywall, pay a sub directly to us to help us out” I would’ve seriously considered it. Now, not so much.
Man what a bummer. Just deleted my 13 year old account.
I noticed ReddPlanet was down today. Just checked it out of curiosity. Haven’t been on Reddit in a few weeks.
Fuck Reddit. Immediately deleted my account and came here
Rip sync. You were the best.
Looking forward to the Lemmy version
