Wait, we’re we not suppose to make leaving reddit our whole personality?
This is day one for a good chunk of us, a little bit of time as we start to fall into different communities and it’ll phase out
That’s like rescuing people from a shipwreck and being surprised they’re talking about the ship that sanked and not about the furnishings of the ship that saved them.
Yeah, and a lot of the discussion amounts to ‘this ship has nicer furnishings than the one that sank even if it’s a lot smaller’ as well.
Given some time and it’ll start to clear out. It’s still very new
This is part of why Voat (pre fatpeoplehate ban turning it into a right wing shit hole) was a ghosttown. The majority of the active communities there were just complaining about different aspects of reddit instead of trying to share and discuss content.
That’s what I mean. There are !reddit@lemmy.ml and !whyileftreddit@lemmy.ml communities and a megathread on Beehaw, which should be way enough to talk about reddit, in my opinion. We should instead focus on creating content which isn’t reddit. I know it’s hard to part, and people are new, that’s why I created this thread to create awareness.
I think it’s inevitable to not talk about the elephant in the room. A lot of the new Fediverse users have migrated from Reddit so a lot of the discourse over the next few days might center around whatever is happening around that place. On the other hand, I do hope that other people take the time to explore and break out of their lurking behavior from Reddit.
Quick tip for those who don’t want to see any reddit discussions, just mute the word Reddit. I might do that in a bit lol
How would one mute the word Reddit? I took a look at the options in settings but didn’t find anything that appeared relevant to me. What did I miss?
