See, if reddit had just let the upvote/downvote system work as intended, instead of banning people for no reason at all in a lot of cases, this entire problem likely would have been avoided. And no matter what the bans should have never been permanent! We dont put people in prison FOREVER, social media accounts should also be treated with some decency.
Permabans with no way to appeal are ridiculous.
And then to add that if you create a new account to get around a subreddit ban then that makes you eligible for a sitewide ban is even more ridiculous.
A lot of this is because the prevalent attitude has been ‘it’s the internet, it doesn’t matter’, and that allowed people to do things that we, as a society, decided long ago that people weren’t supposed to do.
Small suggestion - Is it possible for you to pin this comment to the top of the comment feed? I missed the comment when I first looked to be honest
Not possible in Lemmy…
My only real concern is iOS app support but it’s still early days.
I can’t say I will stay on Lemmy. But I won’t return to Reddit.
Same here. It’s already gotten sucky, and it’s only going to get worse.
If you want to know the future of Reddit, look at Facebook.
Same here. Reddit is going downhill real fast.
Reddit has been going downhill for a decade. The problem was that there were no viable alternatives. Now that /u/Spez has pushed the issue, he forced enough people into Lemmy that it is suddenly a viable alternative. I call that a win!
Yes. For the time being. Would love to see larger migration from reddit.
I’m quite large, and I’m here
Yeah!
Yes. I’ve been been on lemmy.world and kbin.social for the past week and the growth and content maturation is good enough for me now, and improving fast.
I deleted my Reddit account and all my post history yesterday.
I’m liking it, especially with this WefWef web app thing for iOS. Staying because I’m not going back to Reddit
Yesss
Yes, obviously.
Yes I’d be an idiot to go back to a closed system under corporate control. Its not the first time this has happened and it won’t be the last. We are seeing the web closing up now and if we don’t vote with our choices and content we will only be left with corporate walled silos with paid subscriptions to read, ads to watch, tracking on everything… Skip and few steps and we and up with black mirror.
The narrative needs to be democratic. Same thing with privacy , if youbcant have a private conversation you can’t bring about change. I hope you’ll all stay too
Yeah! Fills my reddit void
Definitely! Immediately before switching to Lemmy I found myself scrolling looking for something interesting, meanwhile everything on Lemmy is fresh and exciting. Loving it so far!
wefwef app is amazing so I am staying here
Yes
yes
I’m planning on staying here permanently. I’ll go into Reddit just to check subreddit names I’ve subscribed to and see if there’s a Lemmy community for it every now and then, but I’m not going to engage with Reddit more than that.
Someone told me about https://sub.rehab/, so I just check that every few days to see if my favorites show up there!
That’s pretty neato. As an aside, can you save comments on lemmy?
You can! I use Jeroa on Android, and you can tap the bookmark button to save comments, and I think it’s a similar process on Desktop.
Ooohhh I’m gonna start using that from now on!
