I haven’t been to Reddit for a few days, I’ve also completely deleted my data and my profile from Reddit, and I don’t want to return.
Are we here to stay? Are you moving back to the Warframe subreddit? Are we moving elsewhere, like the official forum, for example?
Personally, I like Lemmy although I miss being able to use GIFs and directly upload videos, so I’m happy if we decide to stay here.
I’m a developer too.
I pay for my API usage, as I should.
It’s priced reasonably, and the companies selling me that usage don’t spread lies about me in private and in public.
I’m also a very long term Reddit user, and I’m completely aware of why Reddit exists. It’s us. It’s the content we make. It’s the time we take to moderate our communities. We made this content before, we put it in usenet and irc and forums. We can put it back there.
Thats fine, go free and make content in places where people aren’t. It’s working great for the 100s of dead youtube and twitch clones.
If you want to leave then leave. You’re entirely able to do that. The problem is that if you want to stay, you now can’t. I have no dog in this fight, I couldn’t care less, yet my mind has been made up for me against my will by people who probably also have no dog in this fight but think they’re doing the right thing
You have the perfect opportunity to make a sub and run it. It should fill up quickly with the vast majority of users like you! Everyone wins. This would not be the first time a secondary sub has popped up to resolve disagreements with a previous mod team.
Use an extension that redirects you to archives of posts if you want to see old posts.
Or just wait until Reddit shows their full colors and forces all protesting subs to open.
I win
