Don't hate me but I'm still checking on on Boost. Many of the tiny communities I like are not here yet but I'm subtlety suggesting they should expand their horizons in this direction.

I figure the protest doesn't much matter Reddit isn't going to back down they are a private company still and not subject to the will of Investors. As long as we get out before the try to go public it will foil their plans. I'd like to delete my account there soon

I noticed the weak point of this protest was the alternatives options where not made clear (or maybe suggestions got supressed) finding Lemmy took me some time and I suspect that communities and users remaining on reddit may not be aware of it.
