Will there really be a big influx of users on the 30th?

I’ve seen many comments and posts regarding the API fiasco on Reddit, with the claim that there will be a huge influx of users when that happens. I’m all for it, but I find it hard to believe that the average or even above average user will make the effort to switch.

a guide on how to use Lemmy would also be nice. I’m a former reddit user and I still haven’t figured out how to edit comments or block users.

I have spent very very little time on infinity since June 11th but I have seen absolutely no warnings and had to actively search for what they will do come July (subscription).

I think for written words in a professional context it’s very similar. but yeah swiss or high German that’s just one of those totally not made up words that exists to troll German speakers. 🤣

Does anybody feel like the quality of reddit has already dropped massively?

I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.

shit behaviour is one thing the mods are another. I’ve seen plenty of communities on reddit where the users hated the mods and eventually left and formed their own sub. the fediverse already encourages multiple parallel communities for the same topic. so i hope we can get around the worst of reddit by seeking out and creating healthier communities. Leave the power mods behind.

I think some just take a bit longer to leave the communities b they build behind and still try to fix reddit. there will probably be a longer exodus of mods when they realise after July 1st that their communities aren’t the same they used to.

of course there will always be bootlickers as well.

infinity is one of the subscription only TPAs. which simply means I can’t afford reddit anymore. oh well.

The thing is, they need to be accessible or they are liable for lawsuits if I understood it right. They took all the labour TPAs do in this regard for granted. So much so they weren’t even aware it was necessary and had regulations in the first place.

Profitability needs somebody who understands what their product is and what kind of legal requirements they need to fulfill. So even under the profitability lens their behavior is destructive.

that’s the same party that thinks life is sacred and is also pro death penalty.

my personal hypothesis is that the empathic and constructive people are exactly the ones driven away by the money hungry deconstructing antics that reddit leadership currently display.

I’m a reddit refugee and a very new Lemmy user. This is my first comment. It would be really helpful if there was an FAQ somewhere or a how to use lemmy guide for new users. I’m still figuring out how to navigate instances and find my way to discussions I’m interested in.
