Seriously, what's up with big sites literally dying as we speak? (lemmy.ml)

First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

I guess we just have to hope that Redditors continue to be frustrated with Reddit in the future and keep migrating here over time (as opposed to just forgetting about the idea of moving to alternative platforms after they've gotten over the current controversy)

Yes, and I think as long as people stick around lemmy that will happen.

There are other alternative platforms, as well, even though they're corporate and not as cool.

Tumblr for instance is doing quite well and catching a lot of twitter refugees. I tried migrating there a few months ago, and to be honest I liked it heck of a lot more than I used to. I'm not sure if the site improved, or if I just understood how to curate my feed better this time around, or what, but nonetheless.
