Every day I see another post on lemmy about how awful reddit is. As someone who migrated during the API fiasco, I don’t know why people want to bring the grifting here. Who cares of reddit banned you for promoting lemmy? Who cares about reddits constant enshittification? None of us are on reddit anymore for those exact reasons, stop bringing their simple-minded dipshittery here. We left to be done with reddit, not to watch the fire from our balconies.
You wanted to say “You can be on lemmy without bringing reddit here.” And phrased it as a bad question so you could post it here. You just want to soapbox.
Managing the content of your own feed is your responsibility. If people post off topic in communities, handle it with a report, not another post.
You are creating what you are complaining about. This thread is the most discussion about reddit I’ve seen in a week or more.
Yeah I’ve not seen anything to do with Reddit on here for at least a month till this
I was here initially because of the api bullshit, but now I just live here. Still hoping for the factorio community to grow a bit, but life’s pretty good and for the most part people are pretty polite. It’s a nice change of pace.
The Factory must grow. Thanks for reminding me to join the community on here.
I’m going to be real with you. I use Voyager which looks like Apollo to me, so half the time I don’t realize I’m not on reddit. And frankly, I don’t care. I didn’t come here to avoid reddit content. I came here to avoid reddit client and company. If the content or conversation is interesting, I don’t give 2 craps where it’s from.
We’re on the internet. All social media websites talk about eachother, it’s just how things go. Until Reddit goes the way of MySpace people won’t stop talking about it.
OMG can we please stop talking about Myspace??? I didn’t come here to constantly be reminded of that place…

He was a good friend
Hrm, I dunno, why are you on the communities that are about reddit if you don’t want to see posts about reddit?
And mind you obviously some want to discuss reddit here. Hence they got communities.
Is this post doing exactly what it’s complaining about?
It’s a Reddit tradition!
It’s a festiverse for the rest of urs!
I don’t mind it at all. Let people vent and release from their old addiction. It’s happened for every migration going back to AOL.
If anything, WE can control what we see and if you’re in areas that constantly have reddit complaints maybe it’s time to curate that subscription list a bit better. Or use a Lemmy app that filters by keyword. You have the power.
I just have no interest in reddit anymore, I always hated the UI and now that there aren’t any third party apps I don’t want to use it. If I see a technical answer in a search sure I’ll use it, but it’s whatever. If reddit wanted to charge on a per user basis to use the API I would have understood because companies need to make money and I wasn’t seeing ads, but they chose the stupidest approach to becoming more profitable.
What’s a reddit?
The place where gamergate got its roots.
No they can’t. Reddit is their spurned ex girlfriend they are going to stalk through out college.
X too.
Reddit? But they’re our rivals!
DAEgradation.
Let people be.
I’m on both sites, if so desired I can do favors for people on either one if they’re banned from the other one. They don’t need to lament that something is left undone.
@lemmy world
Well there’s your problem.
