Well that went just as I expected it to. The admins are still the admins. They're the top of the power totem and that's that.

Honestly this protest's only purpose shouldve be to raise awareness of alternatives and tell people "were leaving Reddit, and this is where we're going" while we still can. Because Reddit is private property, and therefore will always be subject to the whims of its admins - regardless of how people believe it should be run of if people think it should tolerate protesting against the platform on the platform.

Everyone should've been aware that this protest could only have been temporary.

Sure we reminded them of the power we possess, but they've essentially reminded us that they possess more, and can remove that power regardless of how the community feels. Admins are and have always been at the top.

Honestly just the fact that the protest gave awareness to viable reddit alternatives is good enough. And the blackout helped in that regard to force users to search for alternatives (like me). Obviously subs will be forced back open, but people have options now with whole communities here that literally did not exist weeks ago.

This is slightly more than mildly infuriating.

I've joined here because I think Reddit's quality is going to tank after June 30, but I downloaded Jerboa and it doesn't seem to accept my credentials, regardless of instance. I'm confused.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

You point your sign in on Jerboa to the instance you created the account on, in this case, lemmy.world. If you're having issues with that, wait a bit and try again. If you still have trouble, try posting in the [email protected] community.

That's absolute garbage. I am mostly on Lemmy now, but I unsubbed from mildly interesting anyway.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Reddit needs suckers. People who are expendable, do as they're told, and don't ask questions.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I was going to wait until the 29th to erase my content and delete my account, just in case the board woke up from their torpor, decided to stop the hemorrhaging and remove Spez… but now that Reddit is violating their own TOS commitments, and I just got my personal data download request filled… I guess I’m starting now.

What garbage

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

This isn't just mildly infuriating, this is extremely infuriating

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Sad, but reddit shoots themself just more in the foot.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'd say that's a little more than just "mildly" infuriating.

But reddit had made its bed.

Jfc. Reddit is dead.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Wow, watching the Lemmy user activity skyrocket (signups sans bots, it's still the starting wave of the mass exodus, exponential growth curve at its start) is just amazing.

They cannot remove a post's NSFW tag if it has NSFW in the title.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I started Lemmy last week. I was only going to Reddit for Ukraine stuff and now the Ukraine war video sub is GONE. Amazing how much they have fucked this all up in such a short period.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Reddit is North Korea now... :I
