Reddit Migration

Reddit knows they’re only losing a small portion of their users. The users that are leaving, however, are the core users. They’re the moderators that keep the subreddits clean. The longtime users that have been providing quality content for 5+ years.

I think we’re going to see a drastic change in reddits content after this. I’ve already deleted my 11y account, but I’m going to keep an eye on the site over the next couple months (via old.reddit.com, of course) and see what happens.

I hope we’ll see websites like kbin grow and thrive. I already have confidence in the developers and maintainers, and so far the user base is amazing. Even though I have to use a web app on my iPhone, which does have some bugs, I’m already committed.

I would like to say, though, PLEASE provide feedback and suggestions for kbin. Let’s make this site what Reddit should have been. Let’s make it 1000% more appealing to would-be new Reddit users. We’ve all got this.

I don’t believe anything will change, but it’s heartening to see it anyway.

Well seems Greedy little Pigboy Steve huffman has got exactly the same Spirt as his fellow Redditors when it comes to the Strike, just means we'll have to continue forward and follow through to, The main effort current moderators should start working on is to help migrate as many people as possible to services like kbin and Lemmy, also to people who are Reddit mods, here's a tip: Make an Example of all the people saying that, Protests are stupid, aren't going to work, are a waste of time, you're gonna come crawling back etc. Ban them permenantly from your communities and call them out (in a mod-distinguished reply to their infringing message) as the trolls and scabs they are and show that this behavior isn't rewarded with status, dignity, or reputation.

I hope a lot of users are actually avoiding reddit during these protests and not just relying on the subreddits closing to send a message.
