agreed, redditors are welcomed in the fediverse!

16 years on reddit and same, don’t miss it, so long and thanks for all the fish

it is :)

I moderated a top-15 subreddit for over 5 years. reddit got so corporate so long ago that the 80% of the mods left are just on some kind of power trip. So no, I won’t ever feel bad for them.

people often forget that reddit initially achieved network effect because a small number of high quality users left digg for being too captured by corporate interests. the rest took 10 years to play out, but inevitably when the mainstream follows these initial users, the platform dies and it is time for another migration. I think we’ve been ready for a while.
