I'm not trying to convince anyone to go back i promise, quite the contrary actually cause I think spez plans to just decrease the cost of the API and act like it was a bargain deal sacrifice while not solving any of the issues at all

But, when I think about it even if spez did actually listen and reverse all changes I don't think i want to go back to Reddit cause from what Ive seen Lemmy is just friendlier and less :Be Corporate Friendly: I would honestly love it if Lemmy did a project like r/place one of these days so we could see what the internet is actually like instead of what happened in 2022 (I really did enjoy what a bunch of communities did but when the mods started abusing their powers to make it corporate r/place lost so much meaning) but i am curious since i'm not going back is there anything Reddit can do to make you go back to Reddit?

Things that they won't do in a million years.

Bringing the r/place concept here would be cool, perhaps different instances could all do something similar of their own? Federated r/place sounds fun. :^)

I'll stay till end of month to witness what happens, then I'm out and nothing can change this

Reddit would basically have to undo a decade of transformation and prove that they've learned to listen to their community. Only after earning my trust with a proven track record of community-driven decisions would I come back.

I don't see myself going back, at least when it comes to the app. I like the way RIF looks and would want it to stay looking like that, but I don't think Reddit wants that style as they're trying to make it more social media focused. I will likely still use it on the desktop but I don't spend a lot of time on my desktop outside of work and gaming so wouldn't be that often. I'm likely going to delete most of my comments on there soon

There's nothing they can do. Both the firm and the platform are completely infiltrated by intelligence assets.
