Reddit Migration

Well then… I wouldn’t do that again if I were you.

Tbf, being toxic is kind of the point of Always Sunny, even though the creator are really good wholesome people.

Why in the world would anyone want to stay on a site with people like that? Good riddance to that crowd. I understand that some people may be afraid of losing what they have in reddit and lash out at a perceived threat to that, but they just don't realize that they have already lost what made reddit special. It's never going back to what it once was and over time it will diminish further as more and more people get tired of the same low-effort commentary over and over again with fewer and more overworked moderators eventually closing communities because it's just not worth it anymore. It won't happen overnight, but slowly, unless spez decides to go full Elon on the site, which wouldn't surprise me.

You're just not explaining it easily enough.

Feel free to copy/paste this.

Did you see the post a couple of days ago that showed ai language bots replying in reddit threads?

The admins are making bots shit on alternatives and downplay the protests. There's a very real possibility that you're being responded to by ai.

Ok the person who said "sorry for not understanding something that is only popular with nerds" made me laugh because... Bro you are on reddit. You are using the outdated nerd gathering place to complain about nerds?

I will never in my life understand people that think of intelligence and curiosity as negative traits.

The loudest aren't the majority. The loudest are often shills, trolls or AI bots. Just post that there's an alternative, leave the link, and walk away. There will be people coming and joining quietly, in my experience.

I don't know what those communities are (Is there some kind of "truth" to be discovered about the AVGN? If there is, why should I care?). But I would say that at this point, Reddit has been ad-saturated for the time being with Mastodon, Lemmy, and KBin. You're not getting new reach and instead, you're hitting ad fatigue. Unless you can present Lemmy & KBin differently to what people have seen before, it's best to back off for a bit and work on developing a new campaign.

Instead, trust people to know whether they want to be on Reddit now or not. Some people do, some don't, and some people like to be spread everywhere - Reddit, Lemmy, KBin, Mastodon, etc. Give it some time to rest and don't hit them with the same off-topic stuff. Work to create interesting content on Lemmy or KBin. Then when you have something good that's related, crosspost it to Reddit and see if the Admins don't remove it.
