  • Well I wouldn’t class myself as a huge tech nerd, more a person who can work a computer and has an interest in computers etc. But yes this is primarily an exodus of users who actually engage in the platform. Those who lurk and make Reddit ad revenue will remain for much much longer Its just another hit to the quality of content and moderation on the platform


  • The API changes will threaten boost which is the platform I used to access the app and have done for years, this was the trigger. But my general desire to get off the platform was what pushed me to make the switch. Reddit has become increasingly difficult to enjoy for anything other than a meme site. Which I didn’t really mind but the people made it hard to want to post anything of substance. I also discovered Lemmy as an active ish community and I like the structure of the fediverse. Overall I saw Lemmy as a good alternative with a strong enough user base. I hope that we don’t get seen as outsiders when we inevitably crash servers with the numbers that will be arriving soon.
