Huffman said he saw Musk’s handling of Twitter, which he purchased last year, as an example for Reddit to follow.
The writing is on the wall. Those who are staying on Reddit despite everything u/spez said recently are literally asking to be shit on and will fully deserve it.

Lemmy at it’s core philosophies make it much better for communities and individuals to be freer. We just need to go through some growing pains at the moment.
I agree. I’m trying both Lemmy and kbin (although Lemmy makes it much easier to find communities cross servers), but the lack of polished apps for either service can be off putting to the standard Reddit users. Heck, even I’m a bit taken back.
Mastodon was so much further along because it had so much time to be it’s own thing and grow naturally. The threadiverse is being thrust into high gear and it wasn’t nearly as ready for it.
