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.

Agreed, but then again, it's still a work in progress—and barely ready (if at all) for the impending flood of new users starting tomorrow when the blackout starts—so I'm willing to give it a huge amount of slack.
However, coming from
old.reddit.com, the look and feel of this site is more akin to how I think the redesign should have been, a cleaner upgrade to modern design sensibilities, but without the unnecessary stuff.Being of an old Reddit user myself, I think this is fine. It just needs more features injected in and capacity to handle an influx of users.
Absolutely agree.
For one, I hope that the instances are beefed up enough to withstand the influx of users. Secondly, I hope that the devs work on features to make Lemmy as good as, if not way better, than Reddit would ever be.
