I'm hopeful that lemmy reaches critical mass because of Reddit's absurd policies.

It's getting there... The Reddit wave should be enough to get us there if the servers hold up semidecently

Even if the servers don't. I'd rather deal with downtime (aka forced detox😅) than the ads, the negative trolls, the dumb UI that constantly pushes their app, and so on. Reddit only works because it has so much fresh content. If that breaks down than so will it.

I just came in from Reddit. Much easier than going from Twitter to Mastodon.
