Out of curiosity before midnight, I’ve been lurking in incognito to see what subreddits appear and I saw WhitePeopleTwitter has a long post and is choosing to stay open.
WhitePeopleTwitter shows solidarity with the current protests on reddit against the fundamental changes to site architecture.
This moderated thread will remain open for everyone to comment in.
The comments that are in-favor of a real ‘blackout’ are being deleted.
I was even banned for commenting complicity. Interested to hear people’s takes. Anyone else face a similar story or think it’s justified?
.
Doesn’t bother me if subreddits don’t want to protest. The whole point of an online community is that you can have groups with different opinions, needs, etc. Nobody is forcing them to go dark.
Support communities made the right call, IMO, by staying open.
Mental health crisis doesn’t wait.
I think we’re seeing the beginnings of what I call the “Reddit Schism”. Once the cats started appearing, it has become official. We are no longer redditors.
Our fruits have become soured, and have soured us, with the latest news from Reddit. Let us, the “lemons” move onto the welcoming arms of the federation!
This was very poetic, yet cult-like. 😂
What should our title be now? Lemmyors?
Yes, join the cult! Just kidding.
I kind of like the term “Lemons” because the general mood seems to be sour towards reddit from the recent migrants. However, even though lemons are sour, they add a lot of flavor and are a fundamental part of a lot of recipes
Eh… To each their own. Reddit isn’t going away. Many of us may not go back, but there are people who will stay. As long as there’s a thriving community over here it’s all good.
