I wish there was an alternative to leaving Reddit

How would people feel about posting their most upvoted OC from Reddit onto kbin/lemmy? It could be a good way to promote engagement for the first little while. We could have a tag for it or something?

I'm working on archiving and then removing my data from Reddit. I then plan to post that content in relevant... I want to say subs but that makes no sense anymore. I guess relevant magazines?

Same here. I don't want my time and energy to contribute to the value of a corporate and greedy entity like reddit

All of the subreddits I frequent all stated they're closing the subreddits down and deleting their accounts so there's no reason for me to be on Reddit anymore and I can't justify staying on the platform when Reddit is acting the way it is.

It's sad still, but now I'm trying to learn about fediverse and try new things.

Same for me. If they follow through shutting down, I'll have one whole sub left out of dozens I've found over the years. And while it's nice, it's nothing I won't be able to find here. Feels super weird to have no reason to use Reddit anymore, but the end of an era always feels weird.

Worst part is all the subs I really liked but didn't participate in myself, so I'm stuck waiting for someone else to start them up because I have no content of my own.

All great things must come to an end, and reddit is no exception
