If you looking for a degnerate alternative to WSB, consider signing up to wallstreetbets. Also if you can help with promotion/ modding/ content, could really use help. No theta gang.

I dont think reddit survive this and I sure as sheet dont think they'll allow subs like wsb to persist.

The end coming through with a bang.

Maybe I'm pessimistic but nothing will come from these protests. Most subs did a half-assed useless two day blackout. The subs that have gone indefinitely dark are good, but it's the users that make a difference. Reddit most likely won't see a significant drop in users or traffic.

Great article and summary but man, whatever happened to editorial review? There are three or four major grammatical errors in that short piece. It's unfortunate because it's extremely well written otherwise, and does a great job of reporting objectively which is very rare these days.

I just installed the Mlem TestFlight and I’m very encouraged.

It’s already got a similar feel to Apollo and I’m excited to see it develop further. I like the Lemmy web interface as well, but it has its fair share of bugs at the moment (which is to be expected). In particular searching for communities across all instances is really easy on Mlem.

I’m not sure what is next for Reddit, but I’m feeling more and more hopeful that it doesn’t include me at the moment. If I can have a thriving home on the fedeverse, I’ll take that most definitely.

Support style subs will continue to operate, reopen, or stay open. Heart conditions, addictions, etc. Until those groups are created in Lemmy, there is no way those users will go. And if there are those that scrap their account on Reddit, they would likely create a lurker account there just to participate in those subs

Add a month to the blackout each time Spez refers to Reddit's employees as "Snoos"
