It feels pretty weird that Lemmy/Piefed users here are simply planning to keep reposting content from Reddit, that I imagine that the actual death of Reddit(which is actually getting very close that it seems that within 90-120 days the whole website is going to turn to shit with zero power users who post original content as a lot of them will be banned) will lead to a content death here, meaning whole communities will get empty here with no new posts for days.

I personally had started noticing how the content on Reddit started dying down(a lot of communities got hit really hard and even Reddit app rank on Google Playstore top apps list got worse), that I began being dependent on websites other than Reddit automatically which lead me to a path where on some days I feel I am the only one posting on some communities here.

I feel like a big reason here is self censorship, which I can understand here(I literally got banned from multiple servers and communities for holding ideas that many people didn't like), but it has a negative effect overall.

I am personally trying to solve this issue on multiple communities, but I cannot recreate the whole place to be better(IMO).

In conclusion, I feel like the death of Reddit will lead to the death of the network here due to no new content and I don't know how the platform here will react to it when it actually happens soon in the next 90-120 days days.

Note: The only actual communities where I see some Original/new content from time to time here is the photos communities. The other communities here don't seem to have a constant unique feed as far as I can tell.
