Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they’ve been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving…

    You know I haven’t really thought of it that way. A huge problem with the way people are thinking is that we want to see the other side fail or be worse off. It doesn’t really have to be like that, we can just make what we have better.

    Although I gotta say, it is nice to have a service that your real life friends might use that you can discuss things with them. I find it kind of annoying sometimes that I have to explain everything that I use like the Fediverse or Matrix, or other services that I self host. But I guess that’s a price you gotta pay for freedom.

      At least it’s easy. The federation stuff isn’t super important. I understand it now, but that understanding hasn’t caused me to change or use lemmy differently.
