Mildly Infuriating

You're not alone in giving a grand total of zero shits about reddit at this point.

I got downvoted here because I asked why the front page is basically 50+% about Reddit. I'm so sick of hearing about reddit here, can't users make their own content or are we just going to discuss reddit for years? so pathetic

You came here because we need more soldiers

The wall of fucking spez is finmy, but I find it FAR funnier to see how something that was one of reddit's most popular things ever just a few months ago is NOTICABLY less popular. All of the biggest communities that were represented on the drawing earlier this year are nowhere to be seen. All that's left this time around is just random disconnected drawings and massive flags. The soul is gone.

So yeah, stop fucking spamming the canvas and just let it be empty and soulless. It sends a bigger message.

It's one misguided poster spamming the shit out of a bunch of instances, but this post itself seems to imply a more widespread problem.

What are you trying to achieve with this post? Would you like to spark conversation about this particular person's crusade ? Or are you the umpteenth poster this month complaining about content referencing Reddit?

Honestly, the bitching about the bitching about Reddit is becoming pretty fucking tiresome, imho. Why are we talking about this? Why did you make this post? Why not just downvote that asshat's content and move on? It doesn't contribute, you allegedly don't care, why post to complain about complaints?

Super annoying but a great time to bring up Lemmy's crossposting feature! If the image is hosted nonlocally and posted separately, Lemmy can automatically combine the posts and show it as crosspost links. Seems like this feature should work for local media as well but does not seem to in this case. Now this could be user error or this may be a place that the feature can be improved.

I guess a big Chuck of lemmy users come from reddit. Not because they actively chose lemmy, but because reddit became unbearable for them.

They will oft course generate a lot of content about reddit, since they are getting through a rough "breakup Phase".

I would love to see more acceptance for that, maybe then the ex redditors will like it here more.

We all get that reddit is doing this intentionally right?

Like, all the nerds (hi it's me) that are mad about the changes can make angry art, coordinate to really "send a message," the event wraps up, everyone goes "wow we really did something here." and then reddit moves on with it's life.

/r/place is the "using change dot org to send a message to powerful people" of reddit.

Honestly I’ve heard more about spez and Reddit on the fediverse than I ever did on Reddit itself. The best way for us to move on is to actually move on.

WE NEED LESS POSTS ABOUT SOLDIERS

Ya'll a bunch of techy people, how has nobody here just botted this yet?

Hey... I'm just wondering... do we need more soldiers?

Just blocked the [email protected] and my feed is soooo much better.

Really frustrating that all of those above was spammed into all of those communities.

Huge “stalking your ex” energy

Honestly, you’ve just got to wait until people get it out of their system, and folks do that at different speeds. It was the same thing on Mastodon for a while, after the big Twitter Migrations. People were still salty and up in their feels about Twitter, and were posting about it. People who had been on Mastodon for longer got fed up quickly with all the twitter posts. But they tapered off. The same will happen here.

There best way to stick it to spez is to not take part, it's business as usual here

I'm surprised a bit because this place has a higher median age. At this point, that kind of stuff seems super childish to me, and I'm not trying to have this become the v2 of what was over there. There was SO much echo chamber junk going on there that's it's nice to open a topic here and have great diversity in opinion and thought. I'm looking forward to hearing less about Reddit on here, but understand it will take some time for people to either get over it or go back.

I absolutely don't understand people who think the best course of action is to waste their time giving Reddit a ton of traffic to create a tiny protest on r/place that will have little impact on anything.

I recognize a Voyager app user when i see one, great

I just blocked the user. Shit's annoying for sure.

We need more people here. I imagine a lot of Lemmy users use both platforms, maybe one more than the other. Advertising our space is a good thing. Plus, "normies" who have no idea what happened to reddit recently will go to r/place and maybe get educated.

You did just add more...

I came here because Apollo shut down. I downloaded the Reddit app for three subs that weren't really going on here. I've used Memmy for everything else. It's my go to, not the reddit app. Let them do them. I like this shit. The old memes had me rolling. Made me feel like the internet of old, having fun and doing shit all.

Yea seriously, for people supposedly wanting to leave Reddit they sure seem intent on giving it tons of traffic

We need to create our own Pixel games on Lemmy. On every server. With blackjack and hookers

Yeah, I don't even think about reddit anymore, I don't need to troll.

Just downvote and move on I guess.

I do not care about the pixels on some reddit nonsense site. I hope reddit admins remove anything critical and people will simply stop using it.
