After weeks of burning through users’ goodwill, Reddit is facing a moderator strike and an exodus of its most important users. It’s the latest example of a social media site making a critical mistake: users aren’t there for the services, they’re there for the community. Building barriers to access...
I miss it. There’s just not enough people here. Refreshing doesn’t bring hardly anything new, none of my favorite communities exist, and where they do they’re so small that nothing gets posted for an entire day.
I mean, I know these things take time but I’m pessimistic.
I miss reddit too, but I’m realizing that I miss what I thought it was, and not what it is becoming. It’s useful to remember that for mastodon it took years, and many separate waves of migration, for it to have its current use base. So, when people say it will take time, and it will be hard, this is what they’re talking about.
I do too, tbh i miss the less techy people. People that aren’t particular comfortable with new fangled technojiggeties just figured out reddit, they’ll take a long time and a lot of client improvement to come here…
Honestly I kinda like how slow things progress around here
I refresh and nothing changed so I go do something else for a little while, it’s pretty nice NGL
I think it was about time we slowed down the Internet, corporation backed megasites are becoming unsustainable after the end of ZIRP and venture capital drying up. Also it’s so full of bots and mindless people right now it isn’t funny.``
Time to be the change :)
