It’s so wonderful that Reddit, by making a decision that benefits no user/mod/sub, and actively harms users/mods/subs, all in the name of corporate greed, gave Lemmy the boost it needed to become a viable alternative to Reddit.
Thank you, Spez. We couldn’t have done this without you.
Spez the hero of Lemmy
Praise /u/spez! /s
But fuck you, u/spez 😆
Hail Spez!
If Spez was secretly trying to sabotage Reddit and boost Lemmy, would he have even done anything differently?
Given Spez extreme incompetence, he probably would have introduced a great new app and removed all ads
Give the Lemmy app devs another week or so. And for now, keep testing.
