I’m not trying to convince anyone to go back i promise, quite the contrary actually cause I think spez plans to just decrease the cost of the API and act like it was a bargain deal sacrifice while not solving any of the issues at all
But, when I think about it even if spez did actually listen and reverse all changes I don’t think i want to go back to Reddit cause from what Ive seen Lemmy is just friendlier and less :Be Corporate Friendly: I would honestly love it if Lemmy did a project like r/place one of these days so we could see what the internet is actually like instead of what happened in 2022 (I really did enjoy what a bunch of communities did but when the mods started abusing their powers to make it corporate r/place lost so much meaning) but i am curious since i’m not going back is there anything Reddit can do to make you go back to Reddit?
Oof that reminds me of youtube and their nightmare of a copyright claim system
It’s really quite bad. This time around the system has gone through banned the throwaway I used last time, so now I have to make yet another throwaway to get a message through to them. On top of that, they’ve really dropped the ball in Modsupport. Used to get response within a day, maybe 2 at the most. I’ve been weeks without a clear reply there lately. Other than ‘oh we see you were unbanned that time, so no worries bye’ even though I’d put several questions to them about why they hadn’t cleared the suspensions and bans from my account history and a few other mod related questions.
Ouch I didn’t know they got that bad but I can definitely believe it particularly with reddit firing people recently (I heard 5% but I might be very wrong)
