Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝

Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Let's go.

Reddit is dead to me anyways.

I'm dropping Reddit completely in a social aspect. I'll definitely be using it for the treasure trove of information it contains.

A few last minute loopholes were carved in according to comments in this post

some apps have gotten a temporary reprieve such as Narwhal
Some apps have gotten an exception for access for visually impaired.
the NSFW block is exempt for mods so if you start your own sub, you can still see all content or so it seems (I’m not quite sure because Narwhal still seems fully functional in this regard and I am not a mod)

For the empire.

Relay for Reddit is at least comming with a subscription model but to be quite honest I think I'll start using Lemmy much more.

[-] Elgordofordo86@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I just don't see it being viable for them. The math doesn't work once you get power users as the base for using it. Then once people realize they are missing NSFW tagged content that might be a deal breaker. This was legitimately planned by Reddit to not work on purpose.

Hopefully we can help create new communities on Lemmy. Nothing will truly replace Reddit but new groups will be created and over time they will become great.

[-] spiderman@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

everything will be replaced eventually in time but whether lemmy will replace reddit (in this case) is the question.

Rip sync

Fuck Reddit and the bootlickers all over the site now. Enjoy brown nosing spez as you scroll through ads on the shitty official app

[-] ko4la@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 year ago

wild how they complain about the complainers, without realizing that the complainers are the ones who make the site good. Without them it's going to be shitty. Reddit will be alive, but less great.

Digg refuge reporting in.

Think you may have gotten lost in a time warp for a bit there.

Godspeed all my fellow Apollo Astronauts searching for a new home. May you all find safe ground here

[-] Arodg25@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Sync is out but infinity still works, Ill probably use both Reddit and Lemmy and see which app I stop using but so far what an easy switch. It's quite relaxed at the moment.

hopefully many more will still join lemmy in favor of reddit. For now many subs are still very sparsely populated compared to reddit.
