If you go to lemmy.ml it's just a bunch of fucking redditors with their dogshit memes and like three lemme users. It's sad. I strongly encourage users of this site who are so inclined to take a break from infighting to bully neoliberals over there.

      what’s going on with reddit that so many people are fleeing to lemmy?

      Just like twitter, they are going to charge for API access, so no app besides the official one will work anymore.

      Also, when we federate are we gonna have an influx of redditors?

      Probably not. We are almost assured to federate with lemmygrad. We might fed with lemmy.ml, but mods might be able to block them if it gets too annoying. It's probably a good idea to do that at some point. Explicitly liberal instances like Beehaw want nothing to do with us anyway.

        Eh, I think we should plunge into lemmy.ml, in the future. Not just yet, lemmygrad would be a good trial run while Lemmy gains momentum.

      They're making the APIs cost a buttload of money, breaking 3rd party apps. A lot of subreddits will be boycotting with a blackout in protest.

      "No", because the redditors are flocking to Lemmy and landing on lemmy.ml and beehaw mostly (lemmy.ml is falsely advertised as a flagship by some, so a lot of libs are arriving at what used to be a somewhat socialist-leaning space). Lemmygrad has gotten a couple of trolls but not much more, it seems, and this place would absolutely tear a lib a new hole in a tenth of the time. But they will cry on lemmy.ml about it, I'm sure!
