I figured why wait to make the switch, hence this comment is here, and not on Reddit.
I’ll be honest - I don’t think I’ll stop using reddit completely. There are just too many subs there that aren’t here that I’m interested in. I might just use reddit whenever I’m on pc (which would be far far less since I’m usually on mobile). I’m still staying here, though, and try to be as active as I can.
And let’s be honest: reddit has some of the best NSFW content on the internet. Extremely specific interests all curated into their own respective subs. In many cases, this content goes back years
This is the only thing I don’t find Lemmy better at so far
Reddit will very likely kill nsfw in the near future, i just hope the ones that aren’t onlyfans bots come here. If not my personal server will have to do the trick… I think there is a sufficient amount of NSFW content in there…
i am using adblock on desktop and use revanced manager to patch out ads on mobile so that they get nothing :) from this
I’m in the same boat as you, but I’m hoping to see Reddit experience the consequences of their greed.
If they don’t change course they will. But even if they do change course on API fees, if they still plan on an ipo, then its only a matter of time until they find another way to enshitify their site.
Same. The upcoming API change was really just the final straw that I felt personally that the reddit that I’ve used well over a decade was no longer where I wanted to be. I didn’t want to become targeted and used for someones profit (with the upcoming reddit IPO). Really I’ve felt that way since the redesign and the official app came out. Just finally was bothered enough to make the switch.
I’m already here. 🍿
This is nightmare fuel lol
What is happening on July 1st?
You mean June 12th?
I mean, June 12th is the blackout so there will be a wave then, but there’ll probably be a bigger exodus on July 1st because that’s when Reddit is going to enforce the API pricing and changes.
The same for me, except I am going to watch my work’s computer system implode as it is switching to something entirely new on July 1
Oof. Best of luck. Sounds like it’s about time to go on a vacation!
