I myself am really on the fence about this.

I hate what Reddit has done, as I was removed as a moderator on my sub. But I much prefer the UI to Lemmy so far. I’m also having a hard time understanding how this all works. I was familiar with Reddit, and it is obviously a way more active community.

But I also used Apollo and hate how they’ve done him so dirty.

Will you guys return if Reddit rights it’s wrongs?

      I’m not sure if lemmy/the fediverse has the legs to keep the community going indefinitely (i was around when Voat was absorbing the last reddit exodus, i’m hoping lemmy has more legs than that), but I think i’m done with these for-profit social media sites.

      What I’m hoping for, is that a portion of people that care and come to Lemmy stick with it, and those people that aren’t at all concerned with Reddits’s business dealings stick with Reddit. It gives each community a chance to develop it’s own voice, which is how it was before the major centralization of the web.

      I guess what I’m saying is, even if Lemmy doesn’t beat Reddit into the ground, Lemmy can still win in it’s own way.

      I remember the Voat semi-exodus, but as I recall that was all the communities that got banned. Voat turned into a cesspool real quick
