Just checking the vibe. I see that this community doesn’t have much activity, but maybe people are interested in migrating here amidst the reddit controversy.

    I can’t even remember if I subscribed to r/archlinux over there, I’ve eradicated my account now so it doesn’t really matter. The important bits are (1) I’m an Arch user, amd64 and arm7hf mainly. (2) I’m subbed to this community. May it live long and prosper!

    yep! the only thing i used reddit for (other than funny pictures, which we could all realistically do without) was tech support and discussing linux-related topics. And it seems, at least for now, the userbase swings pretty heavily towards tech savvy people so I’m sure this place will be great :)

    I’m a Redditor immigrant. I think Lemmy is a much better fit for the Arch community, and have had this transition on my mind since the Twitter buyout. I’m hoping this push will bring enough of us over that it sticks.

    I’m down for seeing where this trip takes us. If nothing else it’s an opportunity to meet new folks.

    I have just subscribed to as many Lemmy equivalents to my subreddits as I could find. I plan to make Lemmy a permanent part of my browsing. Already contemplating on whether I should delete my Reddit account but I am still waiting out the situation to see what happens. What /u/spez has said doesn’t give me much hope though. I do hope Lemmy takes off. The limited browsing I’ve done on Lemmy has already convinced me that its a better experience than Reddit from a UI / UX perspective.

    I am really tired of Reddit. Unfortunately, Reddit’s user don’t care about the API decisions. Screw Reddit.

    Definitely, ditched my Reddit account. I was already unhappy with Reddit for some time, so while others are mad about the API changes, for me it’s the best that could happen because it made me discover Lemmy.

    Yep! I’m going to hand my subreddits over to others in their respective communities, and possibly delete my account after that.

    I have high hopes for Lemmy.

    I also deleted RedReader (Reddit APP) and just subscribed to a few groups here in the Fediverse
