And saw a bunch of posts about the third party apps closing down, and lots of negativity about that whole fiasco.
… And I realized I hadn’t been there for a week… And frankly didn’t miss it. I am really loving the beehaw (and Lemmy as a whole) community. Thanks for being open, welcoming, responsive, engaging, and just generally nice people. I’m happy to be here. :)
I’ve curated my subreddits pretty well, so I will miss some of them if they don’t move over here or someplace similar. But there’s enough going on that I think it will not be too bad.
That’s my biggest concern as well. I mean, I have no loyalty to reddit as a platform, but it does have vibrant communities for the numerous (and often niche) things that I am interested in. So divorcing myself from reddit almost entirely will be… difficult, but frankly, the platform has been going to shit for a while now and a kick in the butt to leave was sorely needed.
And based on your profile banner, looks like we share one of those communities: FFXIV :)
