Elon is helping people to move towards Mastedon and Lemmy.
Thanks Elon.
Between him and Spez, they've done a great job. 😂
He is spez’ idol. So while Reddit’s circles the drain and value decreases, they’ll will no doubt kill old.reddit on August 1st or something dumb, followed by a posting limit next year. 🤣
Spez didn't borrow billions of dollars he has to pay back with interest though so he won't need to fire almost all his engineers.
He did however send all the most talented developers working under the platform to his biggest competitor so that wasn't smart.
Third party app devs?
Yeah. He literally called them competitors when they were driving traffic to his website. Now many of them are working on making their applications work with Reddit's true competitors.
Or Condé Nast…
Reddit has engineers? Whether they've been working on, it certainly isn't their search feature for the last decade+
It is a success. Actually searched out Mastodon to add to my rss feeds for the first time for accounts that had them.
Think people will end up on BlueSky over mastodon.
Bluesky probably will be the winner; but it may be an activity pub site
You can't migrate to a place that isn't open.
it's not, for better or worse
Good guy Elon
And Bluesky, which honestly has proven a pretty good alternative for Twitter.
The biggest obstacle for Bluesky is the invite-only nature of it right now. It won't be able to grow into the "next big thing" until the masses can move over to it.
What are the big differences between mastodon and blue sky?
