I have also noticed that communities advertised in new communities don’t also show up on other instances. This seems especially true of communities originating on lemmy.world (at least for me).
The irony is that Google is treated as an evil enterprise that only wants your data and yet we all willingly gave Reddit all our data and information while talking about how evil Google is.
I’ve gone looking for a few solutions to issues and the results were Reddit threads. Thanks for the cache trick, I’ll keep that in mind to hopefully continue to avoid Reddit. Ideally we have a better solution in the future that does not result in all our data being held hostage.
I love seeing all the old subreddits showing up on Lemmy as new communities. I hope to see this community grow into an active community that is truly owned by the community!
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.
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.
