How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though? (www.theverge.com)

How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

Now, if only /r/NoSleep would move here, I wouldn't have to keep visiting Reddit. But I am just too addicted to the stories there

I looked around and we have a nosleep here as well though. Admittedly there’s not much in it yet. It would be nice if more people will post here, but it’s only been week 1 of the great migration. I’m staying positive that overtime, communities will move or not, crosspost here. :)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

I imagine apps and frontends should implement a hook to prevent this. It'll be a lot easier to enforce that way.

I missed a niche community of mine. It's a ghost town, but I talk to myself and I see the lurkers lol one can hope. Post and the will come.

If you have friends from other social media, you can always invite them over, if you have a forum account or facebook, you can also link lemmy.world in the website or signature. :) or just work on posting interesting things to communities here in the hopes that it will get the ball rolling.

That's a great idea to link to Lemmy.world, I could make like a little intro welcome card with the tips we picked up to get used to this world

I miss the entire catalogue of posts in fansubs like rdr2. My comfort activity was to just read randomly through those.

The second is that when I need answers my go to search is +reddit on google. I think I'll continue visiting reddit for all of the query stuff
