I dunno, I don't think this is going to stop tomorrow. It's appearing that this might be a permanent schism for a good chunk of Reddit.
Most of the complaints and fears about moving to lemmy, for me, seem a lot easier than it was made out to be. Even though communities are divided across instances, it seems pretty easy to find them, and it seems pretty easy to discover new communities.
I'm not that smart myself, and I figured out how to get on here fairly quickly. Getting on is pretty much like signing up for a reddit account once you know some of the main instances.
I actually like how Lemmy works, and I find it way better than Reddit TBH. The whole idea of a fediverse sits well with me. Also there’s no nonsense stuff like karma or awards.
The lack of karma keeps things local. It prevents trolling by amassing low karma. And it prevents communities from gatekeeping by using karma too. All nice things!
