How do you older Lemmy users feel about the large influx of reddit users?

Reply in thread

The "pro-capitalist" thing isn't bad IMHO

With Reddit users moving to Lemmy, attitudes on Lemmy become closer to reddit mean: Leaning mid-left due to the majority of users being young western people with many IT workers among them

I remember from the time when Mastodon was very young that many Mastodon instances were explitly far-left,anti-capitalist, queer, or all of this. This caused most other instances to be full.of users who don't want that so even apolitical instances turned into far-right asshole circlejerks

Then both sides started to federate only among each other

Its not like Trumpists,Incelas and such are the majority. I'd rather deal with some shitty communities on a large instance rather than have to think about who to federate with again with half the instances blacklisted. Its not like we can prevent them from using Lemmy anyway. At least some of them might be positively influenced by exposure to other viewpoints

Megathread: Reddit Blackout

Reply in thread

Besonders geil ist ihre Demokratiesimulation

Du weißt nicht, wer dich bannt und bekommt einen Einzeiler als Grund

Du kannst aber bei der Moderation Einspruch einlegen! Dann Stimmen sie einfach im Geheimen ab, dass sie recht haben. Wenn du Angst hast, dass eine Person da dich besonders im Auge hat: Pech

Wieso nicht gleich einfach offen dazu stehen, dass man macht, was man will? Ihre seitenlangen Regeln dienen zu einem großen Teil nur dem Gewissen der Mods selber 🤷‍♂️

In response to the disastrous Spez AMA, /r/Videos have announced that they will permanently shut down on 11th June, one day ahead of the planned blackout

Maybe many subs will just fizzle out into irrelevance once power users moved away and NSFW got blocked. Then they can have their IPO of platform in decline

All the users posting one-liners or reposting Memes at aww,videos,soccer and other large subs are not what makes Reddit great. Its OC content going viral on large subs and the deduction of mods and some power users on small subs

This!

I started using Jerboa today and the login confused me. Jerboa demands login but I couldn:'t find out how to login first

I remember Slide for Reddit having similar issues with their UX but their error message is more informative IIRC

You reached the end
