Today I checked the pmos sub and was quite surprised it was closed. And for what reason? API change is ancient history.
Clearly, the protest amounted to nothing and frankly once I figured out that reddit api change wasn’t about preventing foss apps, but about squeezing paid apps out of the market, I didn’t care about it at all.
What’s important for any project is the community, and reddit is simply the only place where such community can grow. So why not open it back up?
upd. it seems that this thread is the most actions this community had in months. Clearly demonstrates the superiority of lemmy, right?
No.
You just replied to a two-month old post. What a booming community! Clearly, leaving reddit vitalized it so much.
You couldn’t even comprehend that I wasn’t criticising a person (consider this as criticism). Instead, I made a point illustrating that switching off from reddit didn’t do any good for the community. It really isn’t that great that instead of active discussion you stumble upon months-old threads.
