We should start calling u/spez by his real name. Because most people won’t know who he is if he shows up somewhere else in future.

Reddit is like the ex they cant get over. Lemmy is reddit now.

There was a lot of talk about Fark on Digg, and about Digg on reddit. It's just the Circle of Life.

What was Digg?

It was a lot like a proto reddit. They made a bunch of changes to monetize and there was a mass exodus to reddit

15 years ago it was THE place to mindlessly scroll and see cool tech articles and other things. Before they got greedy.

Oh that I wish it were. Lemmy is improving, but it does not even approach the quantity and diversity of content Reddit has.

I'm finding it better. Yeah, there's less content and diversity, but the quality feels a lot better. I'm interested in a much larger share of the posts I see.
