Unfortunately in a few hours most of those subreddits will open back up and it'll be business as normal. The ones that don't open will be transferred over to new moderators and they'll resume normal operation too.
Realistically, for the most part, not much will change for Reddit. A lot has changed for me and you, though. I've diversified my entertainment and don't intend to lurk the same website for hours a day. I like Lemmy, and I like the people here but Reddit is too old and too encompassing to never visit it again.
Couldn't agree more on your second paragraph. I have lurked Reddit for years. This, however, is my first comment, and it's on Lemmy...
:D I'm honored to be the first person you reply to! Hope this Lemmy thing goes places.
You and me both! Look at that, I've doubled my number of comments...better go and lie down :)
Me, too. I am also a Reddit transplant, and I still don't understand everything here (also trying mastodon, but they can share users? I admit, I don't get it, lol), but I'm hopeful that enough people will make the move. I was on Reddit for 15 years, on the old Reddit desktop website, then on RIF when I got a smartphone. I won't use Reddit's app, it sucks, so, that's that.
