Bye Reddit

A memorial for the front page of the internet. If you have left reddit or is considering leaving then this community is for you.

There’s also a blog documenting the rise and fall of reddit as well as news and thoughts on the whole issue.

It serves as an archive for posts and topics in case reddit decides to delete anti-reddit posts within its platform.

So as the title says, I feel like I can't 100% leave Reddit till there is somewhat more community & content in the Fediverse alternative. Don't get me wrong I feel the Fediverse is a wonderful idea that could be a great replacement for Reddit as well as other mainstream media but how do I move across if most of the content as well as active posters are on Reddit?

Maybe create the community here and start reposting some of the content you find lacking? It could help others make the switch, create more engagement, and take off here. I understand not wanting to take on the responsibility though.

I reposted some things I had bookmarked from Reddit to their corresponding communities, but luckily haven't had to create my own. I think there's a community where you can put in a request for it to be made, iirc.

@em2 Yeah I already use so many things to not do the things I should, I know that if the information was all on the Fediverse it would be much easier but doing the work to add hundreds of things would take time but like you said if it's a few things I already bookmark or something on Reddit then maybe it should just be copied across. I'd love to know what that community for the requests is if you can ever think of it.

Totally understandable!

Here's the link to the community for requests: [email protected]

Someone also created a bot that pulls reddit content via rss, I believe. https://lemmit.online/
