Because Superstonk mod team is partly compromised. Never forget: we were herded to Superstonk during some overblown mod drama

Reddit was down... So I made a Superstonk alternative in Lemmy.

MODERATORS
The are so many bad actors in superstonk and other gme subs they do not want anyone to move or splinter off.
Keep making noise in there and people will start moving over.
As much as I understand r/superstonk's intent to stay loud, I agree it would have been perfect. After seeing the fediverse really blow up in a few days, I think the average ape would be stoked on the sense of community. And as far as values, I think it's pretty perfectly aligned over here.
I've been in for 84 years and I'm here to stay on Lemmy, too. Here's hoping more will transition.
I'd like to see the GME community without all the shills and bots
Well, for what it's worth I'd say GMECanada is officially moving... I'm the mod of both the reddit and lemmy versions :). It's more of a 'soft move' -- a slow migration but there's no need to hurry, yet at least. I'm encouraging users to try out the lemmy community. Give it time, it'll happen I think.
There are already lemmy versions of superstonk and DRSYourGME, ...
We don’t really need a “space” anymore. We’re all individual investors that are going to be stupidly rich independently ;). If everything goes radio silent, plan is still the same
Either see you on the moon, or at the bottom deep below.
I ain't selling. Remember - DRS your shares!
Its really hard to get a migration going from superstonk when meta-discussions are banned... I just had a post suggesting migrating deleted nu a mod with the reason

it has been stolen even by Cohen with his light alt right dog whistles
I think they argue that if they move away they become a niche forum where no one hears them
Isn't that already what they are?
Superstonk is on a public platform with millions of users, no
I was solo mod on a small provincial gme sub.
I shut it down 2 days after giving notice that that was happening and might be extended then after the spez lizard made the 'this will pass' statement I opened it to state I was out, that I was experimenting with Lemmy, that the sub would remain on restricted and that because it contained valuable useful info I'd leave it up as is and further if anyone wanted to take my role to DM me. I'll check back in a week.
