Well they say that:
"As of Wednesday morning, more than 6,000 subreddits remained inaccessible and in private mode after what began as a two-day voluntary shutdown. The blackout includes popular forums such as r/aww, r/videos and r/music, each of which claims more than 25 million subscribers on the platform. "

It isn't surprising at all, it's about hard money not about communities and fuzzy warm feelings. It seems everyone is working hard down at Reddit to make as much money as they can out of an IPO for a zombified carcass.
Probably most refugees will go back but hopefully not a so small minority will continue to use Lemmy or only Lemmy.
Probably a second wave will migrate at the beginning of July because I don't think that 2 days of "abstinence" will change to much.
Firefox on all my devices. Adding the right extensions also taught me how a web without almost no ads looks like.
Another great ideea from greatest Genius of our age! Of God how could we live without him until now! /s
Wait, so you're saying it's the same like here but with more big corp, data farming, ads, CEOs and lots and lots of profit for them?
Ahhhh, nope not for me, but thanks anyway!
Nokia 6.1 from 2018
Very good built quality, battery life and software updates. Not so good camera.
I previously owned a Sony Xperia M7 Aqua.
Upgrading cycle is basically when is needed - that means when they break, battery dies and cannot be replaced, OS becomes deprecated, etc.
The phone is the only Android device I use.
Not an Apple fanboy here: too overpriced for what they are offering and I don't get any value from showing off some logo.
The rest of my universe is built around Windows , Linux and some embedded applications.
Mint on my main machine for years now.
Very new user here (but fairly old manufacturing date), thank you for your guide, it helps a lot as I try to wrap my head around the "federated platform" stuff.
For mobile client apps, for Android, the one I found is Jerboa, maybe its a good thing to include it in your list.
I haven't touched Reddit since the blackout began and I don't think I'm going to do it again. Maybe one more time just to delete my account.
