I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.
Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?
Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.
The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.
My reddit account is a little shy of 10 years, I think I might be at 8 or 9. I haven’t really commented on Reddit for a while. I won’t delete my account completely, at least not yet. There’s some more subs on Reddit that haven’t moved to Lemmy/KBin yet, and of course I could be the one to bring them over and create a copycat, but that’s a bit of responsibility and work. I am kind of surprised how populated Lemmy is already though.
