Reddit

I joined Reddit mostly because of one specific game focused community. When they went private during the protest and migrated to Lemmy, I followed suit. While Lemmy doesn't have a lot of the functions Reddit had, I like it here more and want to stay.

After reading a bit about the protest, it resonated with me and in an attempt to support it I deleted my 7 year old account with all the content on it.

Now, I found out the said community will be opening their Subreddit again in a few days. They will keep their Lemmy instance open but I feel like the majority of people will return to Reddit because there's years of content there already while they would have to build everything from scratch here.

I respect their decision but I feel fucking betrayed and need to went. Sorry if I chose the wrong place to do so.

Update: Not that anyone cares but it all went pretty much as I predicted. As soon as the subreddit re-opened the Lemmy community completely died. Even the mods don't bother posting latest patch notes.
