Reddit's meltdown
I am a new user. I have NO idea on what I'm doing
To make a long story short... Reddit's doing a DEEPLY UNPOPULAR API change that effectively wipes out 3rd party tools and clients, which sparked site-wide protests. Reddit's CEO is now having a pretty public meltdown and threatening moderators partaking in said protests. Lemmy popped up in a good number of discussions on Reddit in regards to the situation. Queue the start of a mass-exodus of Reddit users and mods to Lemmy
Been "Semi" active on here since the Reddit black out.
We did it Lemmy.world!
My Kbin account has been seeing quite a bit of usage today if that counts.
I have a similar thing going. Have 3 accounts, one on lemmy.world, one on kbin.social, and one on beehaw.org.
I honestly don't know, but if I had to hazard a guess, it would be being able to interact with the Beehaw crowd.
As far as I'm aware, only lemmy.world and some other instance I forgot the name of got defederated by them.
I noticed it too. As a new (Less than a few hours old as of this comment) user, this is a hell of an introduction to the Fediverse for me.
