Wow, holy shit. Servers must be getting slammed with requests. Good thing there's lots of instances to spread the burden.

Got sick of Reddit, looked for alternatives, found sub.rehab, found Lemmy was common… here I am.

I use RIF exclusively on mobile. I never use reddit from my computer. The interface isn't all that different from RIF when on mobile, so I'm giving it a shot. Lots of the other places listed as "reddit alternatives" were mostly just discussion and not community focused and link sharing sites. I like it so far. (my first post!)

spez's continued jackassery. I made the switch about 24h ago.

The post by the Apollo creator was the final nail for me. It really laid everything out there pretty well. Let it go be Tumblr somewhere

gaining critical mass?

Everyone figuring out /u/spez is full of shit

I'm surprised they haven't banned the Apollo dev.

Hmm, it seems odd that the number of total user's has increased so much without the number of active user's increasing as well. Unless people are having trouble logging in?

My brother has trouble logging in consistently. It's always a spinning circle

I heard about it through a negative review of Reddit in the AppStore and decided to check it out. Reddit permanently banned me for “abuse of the report function” though I had only reported a few things in my many, many years on the site. Then they proceeded to ban my entire family’s accounts because we share an IP address. Right after all of that, the news about third party apps came out and here we are.

I hope Lemmy continues to grow!

I DID spend a lot less time in the last month on Reddit than before. Now everyone is constantly talking about how to let reddit be like it used to be and a lot of subs are private.

Im really enjoying my experience here on Lemmy. Kinda like how I enjoyed reddit in the beginning

I dunno, but I've noticed that lemmy.ml had a bunch of bot and spam bots today to ban, and both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world have defederated with a bunch more instances compared to the other day. I wonder if the registration exploit has been patched.

[–] Sleepographer@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

on lemm.ee today there was an account https://lemm.ee/u/XeNoX that registered and proceeded to create i think more than 100 communities, but evidently has not made a single post or comment anywhere. was the situation at lemmy.ml anything like that?

[–] oryx@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hopefully they're all a real people and not bots or something.

[–] Therefore@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Surely some are people, there's still developments at reddit that would cause further exodus. Though it is a huge jump.
