Thinking about sticking to Lemmy for most things and using my Reddit alt account just as a porn aggregator. Who's with me?!

I feel fine switching. I'll miss the deep history of reddit, but apparently the official app sucks for that too (afaik), so no great loss anyways. The community seems small but great here.

I just checked reddark over 8400 subreddits are down, pretty much all of the big ones are closed down, that's crazy! I only had one reddit brain fart today and caught myself before, so I have no idea how things are there, but I do miss all the nature, castles and sculptures pictures from the stuff I followed.

manifesting christian decides to rewrite apollo for lemmy 🙏

half kidding of course, i think he said he wasn’t interested in reddit alternatives anyways, but i do miss it

He actually addressed it in the Verge article linked in this thread. He's afraid of Lemmy or Kbin dying off and having to deal with the emotional toll of the app dying all over again. As a developer, I totally get that concern. He has put so much of his time into Apollo just to see it die, I wouldn't want to risk that again.

I wish we as a species would just drop this trend of having to eventually ruin a good thing just about every goddam time.

Just have to say: Has anyone notice that Beehaw is just way faster then Reddit? Sorry new here, just my first impression. By the way. Thanks everyone for this site.
