Reddit is the new Digg and Lemmy is the new reddit, which means we will one day be the new Digg 😨
Lemmy in NOT the new reddit. It has nowhere near the traffic or niche communities that reddit does. We are our own little community of defectors, but Lemmy is currently not reddit and I have my doubts it will pick up in traffic ever. Which is ok too, I guess.
Lemmy has it’s start by being that upstart anti-reddit competitor. …Just like Reddit was back when Digg dominated the web.
Give it time; it seems Spez didn’t learn his lessons from how reddit ended up dominating over Digg.
Just destroy the internet and/or the planet when Lemmy becomes reddit and the changeover will never happen.l
At the current rate, lemmy just might out live the planet.
Better ditch Lemmy and start your own app now to stay ahead of the curve
Reminds me of the good old days.

Downtime bananas.
I mean, I’m on my third instance because the other two went away so it’s not like we have zero problems here. Gloating can be dangerous.
Given your track record, you should make an account on Hexbear next
At least here we have that option!
And cheers to that!
Oh no, how will the bots function without reddit? Where are the outrage trolls going to scream into the void?
Oh well, not my dumpster fire, not my problem. It is quite funny though.
Damnit, it’s back. It was good while it lasted.
I guess they replaced their backend potato.
Channeling FlyingSquid, wherever they are at the moment.

Lemmy jammin’ on 👍🏼🛞

It’s been broken since the 3rd party apps debacle. Thanks for fucking up the site out of pure greed, you self righteous cunts. If Swartz were alive today, he’d kill himself again over what they did to reddit.

Oh, reddit had these technical issues long before that. I remember regular downtimes. It’s just in the past we had 3rd party apps and their web app wasn’t as bloated as it is today, so at least reddit had good UX/aesthetics.
But now both sides are ugly.
I mean, it was indeed a hot mess in many ways, but it was also a mostly functioning online community. So functional it became a great source for information and individual opinions on just about anything.
It could have been preserved and profited from with little effort, but some suits saw a bigger payday opportunity and tried to wring it dry, accidentally squeezed too hard, and drove a wedge into the community.
I wish that shitty legacy site would go down for good.
Pardon my lack of concern
Cool. Also in important news, I’m scratching my ass.
More at 10.
It’s 10p EST and I’m still waiting for more 😔

I like you.
I eat you last.
You’re not the only one. I watched the local news hoping to get an update on this.
It’s all about the anticip…
