MODERATORS
 

I myself am really on the fence about this.

I hate what Reddit has done, as I was removed as a moderator on my sub. But I much prefer the UI to Lemmy so far. I’m also having a hard time understanding how this all works. I was familiar with Reddit, and it is obviously a way more active community.

But I also used Apollo and hate how they’ve done him so dirty.

Will you guys return if Reddit rights it’s wrongs?

No way, federated universe has opened my eyes. Rather stay here and help grow the community instead

UI's can change. CEO appointed companies can not. And communities can grow :)

That's a negatory Ghost Rider.

Fuck reddit

If Apollo came back and Christian was happy, yes I think so. I gave up a lot by not using Reddit since 6/12 but my boycott will continue indefinitely if I can’t use Apollo anymore.

I will probably still use it occasionally, but honestly I'm super excited about federation. I have been interested in it for a while, and have casually switched to mastodon, but I didn't think it was ready yet and that enough people were adopting it to completely replace my reliance on other social media. But now that people are essentially forced to take it seriously, I think it is finally starting to feel populated enough to have a good time.

Mastodon kind of already started to feel great like that, but honestly I never really used twitter that much.

I don't use Reddit on my computer, only browse it using RIF and my reddit usage will stop when the RIF stops working.

No, they showed their hand and they will not change their attitude. They got caught in their lies and their malicious intentions. I do not mind them behaving like a business, I mind that they are becoming unethical in the way they are pursuing their goals, because they think we are passive enough that will accept such type of conduct without batting an eyelash.
