Hopefully. What if the reddit CEO does a 180 and goes back on his position? I'm afraid that a lot of people will flood back into the site. Problem is, unless people leave organically and of their own will with the intention to use this site because it's better than reddit, nothing will change.
It's important to support alternatives like Lemmy.world because even if the reddit API is free again, now that reddit is going public, expect a lot of restrictions on content. reddit will die like Tumblr did (avid ex-Tumblr user here, before they effed it up, BTW are we allowed to swear freely here?). And like Digg before it. I'd rather be cut reddit out of my life ASAP so I'm praying a ton of communities migrate here... this is such a simple platform to use
Once you break out of prison you don't feel like going back. Lemmy does feel like a breathe of fresh air to me... Let's see what other people think, but I have hope...
I'm already done with reddit...this is just already better between content, atmosphere, I kind of like piecing together the navigation even - with the help of the sidebar lol
