Simple question: Will you go back to Reddit and other centralized social media platforms, if Reddit step back from the API changes? The benefits of Reddit are obvisiouly, it has million of users and even small communitys have thousands of users.
For me it’s pretty clear, after deleting my Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Discord accounts, the decentraliced Fediverse is my future in social media. Even with an very much smaller community, i’m not willing to be treated as ad-cow for the big corps.
But what do you think about your future in social media? Fediverse or Reddit, Meta, Google and all the others? Or will you go safe and use both, to have an backup option?

I am absolutely staying here from now on. Unfortunately there are some specific niches on Reddit that did not blackout that may pull me back, but my default Internet front page will always be Lemmy or another Fediverse from now on.
I’m committed to help build this damn community one way or another so we don’t risk this happening again.
