I don't think many people understand that if they use Lemmy or kbin, they are posting to the fediverse. There are other platforms and will be more to come. Referring to a post on "Lemmy" or "kbin" is like saying you saw a post on your Windows or Mac computer....
Data shows the micro-blogging website has been shedding users since early 2023, not long after Elon Musk’s takeover
I’m pretty sure this is illegal? They have to accept my GDPR request, and they certainly can’t block me from reporting that it isn’t working, for them to accept it.
Will Reddit get quality replacements? "Not a snowball's chance in hell."
Maybe Reddit should’ve done that part first?
Not much else needs to be said tbh. Fuck Spez....
One thing that annoyed me about moving to Lemmy was that I’d lose my subreddits and that looking for and joining communities on Lemmy would be tedious. So (logically) I spent 2 days writing a script, that gets a list of your subreddits from your reddit account and looks for communities with the same name on Lemmy. It also...
The website has been knocking it out of the park for popular decisions lately /s...

I was searching info on a crypto scam and saw that now reddit has jumped on the crypto bandwagon too? Everything must be on a blockchain for some reason
Archiveteam's Reddit project is working to save reddit content from the hungry maw of corporate destruction....
Yep, this is what the future of awards on Reddit looks like
Reddit could be working on a Contributor program, letting top contributors earn real-world money from the gold and karma they receive.
The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. The article describes it as "the official end of the battle," which seems an overstatement to me, but it's the certainly the end of the initial phase....
Did Google help reddit? A short time ago the score for the reddit app was down around 3.2 as everyone gave it 1 star for how bad it was and all the drama going on. I just opened the play store today and the app has a 4.2. Did Google delete or discount some of those reviews?
