Cheers!

Your comment tweaks my interest as an outdoor person and an engineer. =)

I’ve seen this happening elsewhere. All growing pains.

That said, I am curious as to the thread you were responding. Sounds interesting. =)

Former Redditor. For those that are partaking in the Reddit walkout, with no plans on returning, is there additional information available for the datahoarding effort? The amount of information stuck in Reddit is overwhelming and we need to free that information for ingestion elsewhere.

I actually was searching for a solution to an issue today and the solution was on Reddit, which was set to private. I would love to help ensure this information is made available elsewhere.

He definitely didnt take all this information because he’s a big history buff or a big reader. Those two are laughable traits, thus financially benefiting is the only aspect that fits.

It does keep you on your toes. I’ve actually seen a few response to new communities that were posted in the wrong community, assuming it was due to the page updating.

That was my thought as well, or assumption. I’m new here so it will take a bit to figure out the duplication model and what floats to the top, but I’m in for the adventure. =)

Totally agree. I feel like this is the equivalent, to some degree, of Stack Overflow just suddenly going away. The history needs to be preserved, somehow.

I’m also a Digg Exodus user that came to Reditt in 2008. I have very few posts and little karma as it was more of an aggregator of content for me and less about the interaction. And at the same time reading the comments was some of the best part of the experience.

The move from Digg to Reddit took a bit but who remembers Digg now? And Digg crumbled for the same reasons, management not listening to the users. This sucks but it too will pass.

Even if a community exists for the content you seek, how do you determine the one that is going to grow? There could be a different version of that community on every server, which is the area I’m struggling to find content. Join every alternative is an option.

Unless there is something I’m missing. Quite possible as the federated approach is all new to me.
