    Just leave, ffs. It’s annoying that in the end of the day people still remain in droves. The only hope is that reddit drives itself into being unusable.

      I feel like saying “Just leave” to the protesters is akin to telling people protesting Trump as president: “Just leave for Canada. You working and living in USA is just making more tax money for Trump.”

            We’re never going to reach the addicted, but there are likely plenty of people who would jump ship if they just knew a little more about lemmy.

              I’ve made the switch to Lemmy and it wasn’t easy. Now that I understand the way the federated thing works I get it but, honestly I was confused.

              The only thing that I miss is search. I don’t know if it’s my app or what but there’s no way, I can find, to search through posts on Lemmy.

                That will get fixed soon, I’m sure. This thing is new.

                If that’s your criteria for staying, I don’t think search was ever fixed in Reddit, though! 😂 Measure with the same ruler!

        This is more like protesting Walmart while shopping there daily. Reddit directly benefits from the continued traffic.

        • i dont know how eager the advertisers are about advertising next to a canvas where the nicest message is fuck the CEO of that place. Twitter is struggling to get advertisers on board with how much of a fuckup Musk is as a CEO. Spez says that Musk is his idol and advertisers dont want a right wing cesspool filled with threats of violence and hatred to have their products right next to. And that is easier to enforce with a relatively small side like reddit, as opposed to facebook or instagram.

        I think there is a difference between uprooting your entire life to move to a foreign country, and deleting an app

        Sort of, really people want to have a non hostile relationship with websites, reddit is a comical example of corprate instincts being misaligned with that desire

        Spez will be seen as the animal that learned bad behavors and went savage

        Edit: And how people wont put up with it

      It’s because they don’t know any better. The average redditor isn’t exactly super smart, and half of them are even stupider than that!
