minus-squareRadio_717@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoI went to Reddit from Digg during the great migration and I didn’t look back. The Ads and format change were a huge misstep on their part. I honestly would have left Reddit when they went to New Reddit if we would have had Lemmy back then.
minus-squareSir_Kevin@discuss.onlinelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoSame. In fact I tried to find alternatives but there just wasn’t one at the time.
minus-squaresarcasticsunrise@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 year agoFor now, yes. As clueless and inept as Spez has been about this whole thing, it’s only a matter of time until old.reddit gets nuked.
minus-squareParadox@lemdro.idlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoThey already tried nuking i.reddit a few months ago. There’s a workaround, you can append .i to the end of a URL and it works, but still, shame to see the lightest weight reddit interface disappear
