  • Yeah, I don’t really expect any further voting on any given subreddit’s side to be particularly successful from this point on because of that.

    But honestly I’m kind of okay with a slower start on this side of things. If we see any kind of concentrated surge of users on to the various /kbin or Lemmy instances then I think we’ll find out really quick where the breaking point is from an infrastructure and moderation standpoint. Like a few others have mentioned in this thread, we don’t really need Reddit to die - we just need these alternatives to grow in to viable platforms in their own right.





  • I can see that. To maybe overgeneralize, the people that are active on reddit today will consist primarily of the people that were inconvenienced by the protest. Quite a lot of them are pissed that they were inconvenienced. Support for the protest on the platform will kind of evaporate because the majority that understand why it was necessary are already gone.
