I don’t believe anything will change, but it’s heartening to see it anyway.

I've had 3 reddit accounts over the entire lifetime of the website. I love Reddit but I won't stand for their greed. It's unacceptable.

I've been using it since like, 2013, feels like an end of an era, this site seems really similar, hopefully it has lasting power

Agreed. It's been so long but I think that's exactly why Reddit needs to go under. Like yahoo or any other business that makes mistakes.

I put in a ridiculous amount of moderation work. I'm quite sad about it. I guess there's not really much of a choice anymore.

It's not like you've wasted that time, you made a community work for some amount of time and Reddit being done for does not change that

I wish an alternative would work out.

.. he posted, on an alternative platform

They did specify “work out”, let’s see how this goes in a few months time.

hardest part is getting used to the differences. But hopefully enough migrate away.

The hardest part is lacking all the beautiful non tech sections of reddit; i doubt any will make their way here. Hope to be wrong!

We just need to bring the content here

Agreed, we need to help people find their way here. They're not going to come unless they know where to go.
