Awesome. The Linux community should be among the vanguard of this whole effort given our philosophy.
Honestly I’ve only been on Lemmy for a few days and I don’t anticipate going back to Reddit. I’ll probably use Reddit for IT help queries periodically but that’s it. I like Lemmy quite a bit more.
even better: post links to your IT help queries on lemmy to reddit.
It’d be even better if all these subreddits indefinitely go dark. As someone who grew up using the “old” internet with Usenet newsgroups and mailing lists for discussions, I am happy that decentralized way doing things might be adopted again.

I mean… The plan to go dark was originally to protest the API pricing and policy changes. And as far as I understood, they’re all going dark until Reddit backtracks those announcements
Initially at least, the subs I saw were talking of going dark only for a couple of days, with only a few stating that they will go dark indefinitely. If everyone is on board now for indefinite darkness then that’s great!
Maybe I got it wrong then, but at least that’s what I understood initially. I guess we’ll see
That’s ok we have /c/linux now.
It’s happening!
Just uninstalled the 3rd party Reddit app I have on my phone.
i don’t think i could really care less.
lemmy is just really exciting!!
/r/endeavouros has also gone dark.
This is great! 😆
Thanks /u/spez!
