well said. it’s not about quantity, it’s about quality. and spez enshittified Reddit because of greed, we shouldn’t be greedy ourselves, or Lemmy will get enshittified too.
i would like to slowly make it cozy and happy here, we shouldn’t be competing against Reddit, because Lemmy is something different.
any nice user is welcome, please don’t make them feel guilty for being on Reddit too. we will slowly make a nice transition so people have the option to being their stuff here if they want, which is what we need. no rupturism, please.
i think we should be welcoming, not warmongering. this was made for users, not against spez. it’s totally different.
spez can go and screw himself, i prefer to appreciate those who do good than to mourn about those who do wrong.
don’t waste energies on destructivity, spend them on constructivity.
don’t compare to Reddit, compare to Lemmy on July, to Lemmy now, to what Lemmy could be if we work together.
don’t get anxious about growing. focus on ‘growing nice’ instead of ‘growing more’.
we will make it. for sure. and it will be great.
have a nice day.
edit: i realize the ‘not against spez’ could have been worded better. what i try to say is that i prefer to focus my energies on nice people than bad people. i suffered already a lot bc of bad people and i prefer to spend my life supporting nice folks. sorry for the confusion.
Agreed. I’ll be staying with Lemmy. I don’t care about daily active user numbers, I care about how Spez is treating Reddit and having good post content. Redditors themselves (as a whole) are not a problem, and I have a plethora of good posts to go through when I get on every few days.
that’s so nice, pal!
and yes, it’s totally understandable to feel saddened and angry at spez for doing that (i feel the very same), but we can compile that content here, and welcome their original posters to Lemmy when they feel ready.
what it’s worrying is the hateful comments about redditors, calling them names. i think some people is becoming radicalised, and they feel ‘superior’ in some way to other users. i don’t think that ‘cyber snobism’ will help Lemmy in any way, but that’s just my opinion.
thanks ^^
What’s shocking is that it could have been a force for good and community building. Instead he insulated the bullies and allowed people to abuse the system for personal profit. All of this because of an unending sense of entitlement.
yea, spez is a piece of garbage, and he did all this for money. and it’s sad to see Reddit worsen so much, as it was sad to see Twitter become the same.
still, spez enshittified what nice users made nice before. if we support that kind of users, i’m sure we can even surpass the awesomeness Reddit once had.
because awesomeness is not Reddit’s, it’s the internet’s. no matter where it is, if we support, it will bloom.
