Long time Reddit lurker, first time poster.
I am a pretty basic redditor. never even heard of the 3rd party apps until the whole API thing happened. but i followed the news and was seriously triggered by how the admins acted towards the users and the mods who worked voluntarily for reddit. i feel like i cannot in good faith stay with such a corporation, and i wholeheartedly support the communities migrating here.
where i’m from there was also a similar incidence, where one of the largest forum experienced a massive exodus because of 3rd party app issues. it turned out to be a huge success for the new forum. so it can be done - but it does require solidarity and perhaps more importantly functionality.
so, hang in there ;)
edit: i meant basic not based LOL. sorry :(
thanks. still trying to figure things out. i do hope the content here will get better once more people come here as well
It’s already better! you just have to go find communities (subreddits) you’re interested in and subscribe, the guide I linked will tell you how.
