        My lemmitard in christ it hasnt happened yet. We are only a small .1% of crossovers and the whole fediverse is still less populated than r/malefashion advice.

          It is not the number of users. It is quality of interaction. And I argue that it is already here (kbin user). Yes, it still misses such things like subreddit for a particular obscure game, but the overall experience is great.

            Right — on Reddit, if you didn’t get to a post within say the first hour or so*, you were going to be banished to a vast wasteland of unseen comments with only one upvote.

            Even if you did, well, your comment best be damned clever, funny, or interesting to be interacted with much.

            This basically feels like a less lonely Reddit.

            Mastodon also has this vibe for me (vs twitter). Basically, the superstar economy effect is less strong.

            *or piggyback on an existing top-rated comment (trying to make one’s own relevant to it, or “hijacking” it)

              I 100% agree. I sometimes think of le funniest heehee hohos on reddit and i get 2 upvotes. Lemmy hits that dopamine a little harder with smaller number of users.

    I see this as a good thing. Now Reddit has to bear the cost. Even if they find replacement volunteers, some employee still has to make that happen. Likely several. It’s costing them. And that’s what the goal was. To weigh them down.

    I was hoping every mod would walk away. All at once. Like you say you can run it all, there you go.

      The subreddit originally had three moderators but was replaced on Thursday with just one, ModCodeofConduct.

      I’m guessing u/Modcodeofconduct is a bot.

    The comments on the post the mods made yesterday about discord are awful. “Get over yourselves,” “Spez owned you guys,” “Why would we go to Didcord, we chose Reddit.” They’re all from accounts that are 8+ years old that have never interacted on MFA or didn’t start commenting until Rexxit started.

        Discord is the best chat app ever created. (but I agree, it’s not a good reddit/forum replacement)

          Sure, but probably the worst for community-forum style content. Links expire, information moves all over the place, no search indexing for engines, can’t view content if you aren’t in the server already, basically impossible to have discussions about anything older than the current day. It doesn’t work for a lot of use cases that reddit/lemmy do.

            Agreed, and I never said it is a good reddit replacement. I think discord is lightyears ahead of previous platforms that it replaced like Ventrillo, Teamspeak, AIM, Whatsapp, ICQ, etc etc etc
