Sad, I miss some old faces but the community that was I think is dead and fractured. And out of the ashes this one grew. And that’s fine, honestly! I’m just concerned as to how we grow this one so it doesn’t become an echo chamber.
I do miss Reddit sometimes, especially the DT community during lockdown. I regret that some members disappeared or didn’t follow. But apparently everyone with a big site wants to be Elon Musk now so yeah :(
This DT is good though, I’m also finding Lemmy a bit calmer.
The other dt still talk about us like we’re the poorer cousins who lost their way and hope to make it back some day because apparently it’s slow over here. 😂
Oh, ok. I don’t have any kind of beef with anyone who stayed. I wasn’t aware there was any competition or tension.
I just saw the owner openly say that he wanted to emulate Musk then engage in strongarm tactics, and went ‘yikes’ over where that behaviour might lead. What the site might turn into. Also the whole selling user data to AI thing is not something I agree with. Would potentially consider frequenting both places casually if the owner stopped being a raging jackarse or sold the site. If it was like it used to be.
The mix of people in the DT seems to have changed though. I don’t recognise many usernames anymore so if I did ever return that would be another adjustment.
I kinda miss epicpillowcase’s devotion to intellectual and social honesty. If the emperor has no clothes, we could depend on them to prevent that emperor from booking a seat on an airline for the foreseeable future.
Eh, they definitely have a wider range of commenters and much more activity in the main sub. There’s no doubt that Reddit still has a lot more momentum and it’s mostly the same people here in the DT. I don’t mind that of course, but I don’t think their opinion is that weird…
Happy 1st anniversary month dt. 🥂🎉🎂
Let’s spare a moment to appreciate those who stayed and made this thread great and remember those who have left and are dead to us now.

Pour one out for the homies we lost along the way 🍺
Has it really been a year?? Good heavens. At some point I should probably work out how to use Lemmy beyond the DT.
Thanks all for being fab!

That is a work of pure art! Love the coconut sprinkles!
Not mine.
Take the credit anyway!
Nellie? No wonder your kind are endangered. You look delicious 😋

I still browse reddit.

imagining AI serving breakfast daily
No. Don’t even think it. We’d all end up all eating weetbix with honey and bananas. A fate worse than death.

No, it would be an inedible slop of incompatible foods mashed together.
Or glue pizza Edit: Or deadly mushrooms.

Two sites both alike in dignity, in fair Interbutts we lay our scene
The fault is in the interwebs
I miss jayyberwocky lemon and… shit I forgot his username, the bloke who was gonna have a kid shortly after mine.
TaxiSonoQui?
I don’t think so, I think it was a 1 or 2 word username. Pretty sure he and his Mrs have had their kid since.
Given we routinely outcomment them, that seems a pretty weird opinion.

Fair enough.
What I feel about Reddit Not sorry to have come here - much more fun and a lot less toxic.
I’m going to celebrate with a nude homemade coffee! ☕️
When I go on Reddit these days, I feel myself getting aggrevated really easily.
I wonder if it’s always been like that and I hadn’t noticed.
Here’s to a great space 🍸
