Point being, all of us that are here are the ones cool enough to come here. We are unified by the desire for a better social media that is not-for-profit and user driven. And that makes this community unique compared to the scabs advocating for Reddit. The people who will belong here will come here. :)

    yes this is a good take. So far across beehaw, lemmy, and kbin I have had much more meaningful interactions with people.

    After 12 years, I’m done with Reddit, the writing is on the wall - they are catering to the Facebook style and type of user. Their major focus is users scrolling their feeds. There is no place for them there as time continues on.

    I am looking to a future where I can contribute and get something different out of my time on the internet. it doesn’t bother me that every community hasn’t migrated, I’m trying to spend my time learning about new ones and expanding my horizons.

      Also I like the idea of not having a monolithic replacement that would lead to the same problems. Let us have a flourishing lemmy, kbin, saidit, etc…
