Still can't fathom deleting my Reddit account, even though I was always much more of a lurker. I was quicker with Twitter --> Mastodon. Deleted everything as soon as the shit started hitting the fan and didn't look back. I'm sold on Lemmy, though. I'm getting a whole lot of what I was getting there around these parts, and it seems to be a wee bit more friendly for the kind of people me likey.
I feel you. I am signing up for Lemmy, even though I still hope that Reddit's shitshow will be resolved by June 30th. I joined Reddit around 16 years ago and while I nuked many alt accounts in this timeframe, nuking the final one, knowing it will be my departure from the site feels... weird.
Lemmy has a long way to go before it can be an actual replacement, but seeing the steady stream of new users over the past few days, I can see the potential. It feels very much like when I first joined Reddit.
I feel you, I had a five year acc on reddit, but after the shit they have been pulling, Api, not able to use reddit website on mobile, etc Im done. They show they dont care and I think it's time for something else to complete with them.
