Yup, I agree with him. However, I’m still happy that all the Reddit stuff happened. That may naturally sound weird, but at least now there are enough people on Lemmy to be a viable replacement for me personally
I cant watch the video yet, but…
Failed? Well, as low as my expectations was, I’d call this a success so far. They’ve stressed the reddit leadership enough for them to take authoritarian actions making them look bad. Enough that reddit is running a pr campaign to paint us as “a few landed gentry who want stuff for free”. Driven more than 30K people to alternative services. And the API isn’t even down yet.
