I would agree from an outdoors perspective but there’s no part of those states that really fit “blueish”. I keep hoping as a neighborhood state, but Wyoming continues to disappoint as does Montana.

Nice! Thanks for the info! I’ll get something set up today to start contributing.

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!

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I found something similar after I had posted this message.

Definitely some learning to do as to how the federated system works with Lemmy.

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).

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.

It does keep you on your toes. I’ve actually seen a few response to new communities that were posted in the wrong community, assuming it was due to the page updating.

Totally agree. I feel like this is the equivalent, to some degree, of Stack Overflow just suddenly going away. The history needs to be preserved, somehow.

I’m also a Digg Exodus user that came to Reditt in 2008. I have very few posts and little karma as it was more of an aggregator of content for me and less about the interaction. And at the same time reading the comments was some of the best part of the experience.

The move from Digg to Reddit took a bit but who remembers Digg now? And Digg crumbled for the same reasons, management not listening to the users. This sucks but it too will pass.
