Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️
An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

I don't really mind. It gets people asking questions. It also revealed Admin intervention when they removed the guillotine which is bad publicity. I think there should have been more messages about moving to Lemmy though.
Ginagawa din ito ng bird site di ba? Kaya binabayaran nila yung mga problematic accounts para matrigger yung hate engagement which is still engagement.
Kapag nacontrol mo talaga emotion ng iba, yayaman ka. Hay... How to manipulate emotions ba? Pareveal naman.
On the other hand, stunts like that make the news.
Not that the vultures watching Reddit (and its upcoming IPO) would be reading something like Kotaku or the Verge. However, with enough press coverage, who knows? It might end up in something like Forbes, or the Economist or whatever (online) newspaper those things read.
