Don’t forget their plan to allow users kick out mods and then imagine how people with monetary interests will conspire to kick out mods that stop from from maximising their profits…
I hate it too. As much as I enjoy Lemmy, Reddit was my go-to social platform thing for a long time. I hate to see it being mismanaged by an incompetent fool like Spez.
At the moment my main gripe is that people still refuse to move to other platforms despite it all. I want to scream “It’s not going to get better, folks!” at them all of the time. But I am too tired to do it.
The issue that I have, both there and here is the amount of ignorance, thickheadedness and sheer lazyness people have when it comes to their opinions. I know the feeling. If someone challenges your opinion, it takes some guts to discuss and maybe even change it. And if people are being dicks, I won’t budge if I‘m 100 times proven wrong, just to make them suffer. But even trying politely gets you jumped by the biggest trolls and bullies. I hate it.
I wonder would one reason be that if “the most” of the community is there, it’s just better to be there with the folks and the content rather than take a leap to a much smaller place and feel small or lonely or something like that…
(I haven’t used kbin/lemmy for more than an hour - seeing whether this is a new place to stay)
To the surprise of no one here, they are continuing to make reddit worse.
@CoffeeAddict guess we’ll see another kbin/lemmy + masto bump soon.
just wait until they start monetizing karma. it’s gonna turn that site into a race for the bottom

I hate that you’re right.

Same. It’s heartbreaking. But people were/are not ready/able to save it so we have to move on. As sad as it is.

So, they can kick rocks imo.

Somehow missed that and well… fuckin yikes. Reddit is incredibly easy to bot, this will get abused in short order.
