A word on reddit, blackouts, & effective protesting: https://piped.video/watch?v=U06rCBIKM5M

wish some reddit mods participating in the blackout watched it.

Mod of small (~26,000 users) sub. We'll be staying dark indefinitely. Talking to my other mods for other subs and recommending they do the same. We're tiny but hopefully it sends a message to our users.

As a user of a shut-down (maybe temporarily) community in Reddit, the fact that it was shut down and has a decently active (migrating) community here is the very reason i have a Lemmy account.

Shutting down on Reddit is a valid working strategy to send a message, so you made the right choice

I feel fine switching. I'll miss the deep history of reddit, but apparently the official app sucks for that too (afaik), so no great loss anyways. The community seems small but great here.

I'm thinking about sticking with Lemmy for most things and just using my Reddit alt as a porn aggregator. Who's with me?!
