I’m not trying to convince anyone to go back i promise, quite the contrary actually cause I think spez plans to just decrease the cost of the API and act like it was a bargain deal sacrifice while not solving any of the issues at all

But, when I think about it even if spez did actually listen and reverse all changes I don’t think i want to go back to Reddit cause from what Ive seen Lemmy is just friendlier and less :Be Corporate Friendly: I would honestly love it if Lemmy did a project like r/place one of these days so we could see what the internet is actually like instead of what happened in 2022 (I really did enjoy what a bunch of communities did but when the mods started abusing their powers to make it corporate r/place lost so much meaning) but i am curious since i’m not going back is there anything Reddit can do to make you go back to Reddit?

    I don’t wanna! I don’t wanna!

    But I feel like maybe I should wipe my account, too.

    I don’t have any special expertise in any category or anything but I really don’t like the idea they’ll be able to take my dead account with over the 146K combined karma and sell it to some AI jagoff startup.

    I don’t even know half of the platforms I stored my stuff on, either.

    I have a lot of fond memories that will die with my login but fuck if I’m going to unwillingly participate in the monetization and mining of all of that content!
