for the Reddit refugees, do you also feel a bit heartbroken? (lemmy.world)

For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Yeah, Reddit had a lot of communities that I loved interacting with and finding advice with. I do hope Lemmy gains enough traction to replace Reddit.

This.

It's very sad what has transpired the past few weeks but it's clear where Reddit's priorities lie.

Let's hope Lemmy takes off/gains a stable user base that we can all call our new home.

I saw a thread on a niche sub, where the question was if the user was gonna leave reddit. The vast majority replied with "stay". I'm sure our numbers will continue to grow, but I'm afraid it will take a long time to replace Reddit. Maybe it's better we take our time to build good communities here. So far, all interactions I had were great
