  • The higher a barrier to entry the less people you are going to get.

    And that’s ok. MOST redditors are lurkers who don’t interact with the platform and/or bot accounts. Nothing good will come to this platform if these accounts move over.

    Give the platform 2 minutes to figure out how it works and all is ok. This on its own is a great screening process.

    Not that the platform is hard. It’s just different.


  • people are going to go back to reddit.

    Realistically, there is no reddit to go back to. After the company goes public, Reddit as we knew it, will cease to exist.

    The shareholders will want to be make maximum profit. This means that ads are going to be everywhere. They are going to outsource hosting services to horrible companies, in order to cut down hosting costs like video hosting and image hosting. Features that existed in 3rd party apps are going to be paid features in the official app/webapp, etc.

    Reddit is gone. It’s lost. It will not be there as you knew it to go back to. It’s now a case of where to next and for the time being, lemmy and feddiverse looks the best.
