Just realized something I *don't* miss about reddit: post anxiety ( kbin.social )
Did you ever have that feeling on reddit of "I better word my post just right, otherwise AutoMod will take it down"? Some subs had such strict auto moderating that it was a crap shoot to post something. Not so here. I know there's value in moderation, and I'm sure Lemmy/kbin/etc. will add more of it with time. But, for now, it...

Well thats that for the reddit app - just uninstalled it off my phone
Hardly ever used it, but got a notification from it on my phone the other day which reminded me I still had it on my phone. It was still linked to my old reddit username which got suspended permanently a month or two back, so I finally got around to taking it off....
Reddit’s r/Place is going about as well as expected ( www.theverge.com )

Reddit invites mods to “feedback” conversations with the admins ( www.theverge.com )

Many Redditors were caught off guard by the removal of their chat and message history.
Censor-ception! Reddit user's post in r/place about admin censorship, is taken down, so they made a 2nd post about the 1st post being taken down, which was also taken down...
This is the user’s 3rd post. Let’s see how long before that is also taken down! 🤣...
Reddit threatens the mods of r/CyberpunkGame (the main subreddit for Cyberpunk 2077). Mods decide to go down in a blaze of glory, whole sub agrees. ( old.reddit.com )

I think the rush to recreate communities is a bad idea. ( kbin.social )
If you recall reddits growth many of their communities evolved as offshoots of a single generic community. This made it easier for people to see discussions they normally would not get involved in, and once the posts in a similar category reached critical mass it moved to a sub Reddit....

Anybody remember Usenet? ( kbin.social )
So I've finally been doing my little reddit/twitter migration against my better judgement (my better judgement would say to take the opportunity to get off the internet but who listens to that loser). I'm finding all these platforms interesting, I particularly like how kbin combines both formats and links up to Mastodon, that's...
Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time ( www.theverge.com )
