Even in new everything is reddit this, reddit that, lets stop.
But don't stop on reddit. That's where the annoying megaphones ought to be.
Been uploading pics of my cats, a few old memes I have that made me laugh again, and even one of my old car. Believe me, some of us are trying!
Yea... see... the problem is that I never create content, i just browse...
hell yeah, but how does one make a sub-lemmy? I've been wanting to make one but not too sure how! also, I don't know how to mod or anything lol. can I appoint people to do it?
i agree. when people come here well have a better chance of getting them to stay if theres good content. but a little would still be good since theyre coming here angry at reddit most likely.
the same thing happened with Mastodon for a while after Elon took over Twitter, lots of people posting Twitter news and talking about what has happening on Twitter. might be best to just wait it out π€·ββοΈ
Yeah the internet is abuzz with Spez's antics, don't expect that to die down for a while. If they follow through with the deadline it will be even worse.
Still we can add other stuff, maybe drown out the roar a bit. Can always use more communities, I have some good ones now, but I still need a couple I'm lacking.
you first
So that Spez guy I tell ya...
The biggest issue with most Reddit-like websites is that the general user-base tends to talk a lot about Reddit and why they hate it.
The issue with lack of content is the 90-9-1 rule. Iβm planning to actually start posting to this website soon just to start more discussions and topics. Post anything and everything; itβs how a site like this grows.
I run a nice London community at the feddit.uk instance, while it's not front page material I highly suggest just finding communities that fill your niche and subscribing to those. The Reddit stuff will die down when this place starts to establish it's own identity but for now lets now start from bottom and work our way up to a unique community then just being Reddit for those who don't like Reddit.
well i am making a point to not go to reddit anymore so i'm glad people post here about what's happening during the blackout etc here so i can see it.
Reddit blackout was all I saw until I clicked βCommunitiesβ at the top and subscribed to my interests. Now thereβs lots of other stuff too.
the "perfectlycutmeows" community is working here and a couple other instances, as well as a magazine on kbin.social and a channel on dalek.zone, so you can count me in and you can search for it yourself
I've been doing my part and posting content I'm interested in. I hope more people do and that this site picks up.
I think the drama will continue and we'll see an uptick after July 1st when the third party apps dies. But this too shall pass. Just give it some time.
There is also SNOOcalypse dedicated for people who want to vent about Reddit.
Nice meta commentary
It'll get better over time as things settle in. Right now reddit is just the hottest topic on the block
I am actually trying to find more of it! I love burn corposhit style drama. Its a bit all over the place though so i can see why its annoying. Maybe i should start my own community..
After you!
I'm interested in the new music community! I'm terrible at branching out. Thanks for making something I didn't know I wanted.
Already have more posts and comments than my 12 year reddit history. I'm trying my best to adapt and survive.
I am! We are!
(Just- make sure to subscribe to more places. There are a ton of communities spread around on various instances)
