I mean there were a lot saying that on the discord, but I'd say there are more people who were waiting for this to get set up which isn't something that'd be a vocal opinion on the discord
I'd imagine many more passive users just kept using reddit, and I'm not sure what it will take to bring people over here permanently. Old habits die hard etc.
yeah, I sense that a majority of people are willing to come here, but it sucks that a not-insignificant number of comrades won't be part of this community because they happen to prefer the chatroom format or they don't want to make a new account or some other minor thing along those lines
no shade to the discord people, but I think a big part of it is that the chatroom format leads to cliques and some don't want to leave the cliques that naturally formed
A moment of silence for comrades who did not survive the reddit —> discord —> Lemmy journey

I feel like all the active r/cth users made it to discord, but a significant amount don't want to go from discord to here
tbh I only went on the discord for the #lemmy-discussion and the occasional shitpost
Yeah, having a chatbox can be fun but the speed at which the discord moves makes content even more fleeting than it already was.

yep, no way i was going to discord, was totally waiting for this.
Why wouldn't the active r/cth users come here from discord? Not enough boots?

we should keep some leftist subs on Reddit for new people.

We need to host our own matrix server, and this time do it pe-emptively instead of scrambling after the ban.

It's so easy to make an account ill probably just make a new one every time I get logged out...
Don't be a wrecker.
New accounts are good for the user stats
I've been seeing a lot of people on the Discord reluctant to come here.
what's the reason? This will not stand. Things must go back to the way they were. Here.

Cliques are revisionist (unless they succeed, in which case they're called a vanguard party)
I don't really understand that. Like....you can do both.
I have no clue, dawg. I can't comprehend why you would want the unstructured setup of Discord over this.
Congrats on the promo
A tear shed for the Libs lost to attrition
the long march
