Reddit can take all their fake and inflated as fuck engagement numbers and shove it up their arse, for all I care.
Play on r/place, don’t play on r/place, doesn’t matter. Lemmy is big enough that it is its own thing now. People that want something different will come. As much as it would be nice to have essentially a crowd-run ad campaign for Lemmy, I respect anyone committing to not visiting Reddit again for any reason.
The best way for lemmy to grow is slow and steady, eating reddit’s lunch over the next few months to years. It won’t happen overnight, and we don’t want it to.
Your username growing into this sentiment is exactly how I feel. I was super pissed a couple weeks ago, now it’s just meh, not my pile of shit to deal with anymore.
People should really use his actual name, “Steve Huffman”. Being called an asshole by his username is just reinforcing his username and thus Reddit. Use his name so that when he goes to his rich-guy places to hang out with fellow rich guys who don’t use Reddit, they ask him why everybody is saying he’s an asshole.
They expected everyone to be so mad at Spez that they ran to the subreddit to show their displeasure, thus making it seem like Reddit engagement is doing just great so it looks real nice for the IPO. You guys really need to just stop paying attention to Reddit at all.
