Agreed. We're here. No need to go back to Reddit anytime soon. Or ever if the enshitification continues.

Just subscribed here and want to say I completely support you doing an indefinite blackout.

Well, I hope this means that all those who followed this subreddit will come over here because, in the end, if Lemmy provides enough content to be a Reddit successor, it will succeed but, if it becomes a mere shadow of what was available there, it’ll fade away just like some of the “Twitter replacement” platforms have.

it's pretty amazing how the entirety of reddit just united against this change.

Been asking for an indefinite blackout, glad to see this has become reality!

lemmy is the new meta! 😁 is there an app for both ios and android?

Sync for Reddit is thinking of working on Lemmy support. If the big apps move to Lemmy, it could push a lot of traffic to it and keep the exodus going. Encourage it on syncs GitHub and discord server.

/r/Piracy and /r/FMHY were one of my favorite communities of Reddit, I'm so glad they are here in Lemmy!

Even if they reverse course completely I don't think I'm ever going back

Sounds good to me. The people participating in piracy are the type to quickly adapt to changing technology. Let’s embrace this opportunity.

Indefinite blackout is so fucking stupid stance in my opinion. It is between reddit and the owners of 3rd party apps. Let the fucking subs live so we can get what we want from there

What about the users of the third party apps?

[–] sogekek@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

switch to the native app. It's better. Tried the third party apps they are not better than the native app

[–] Dr_Cog@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I've been using Relay since 2013, before the official app existed. It is better than the official app in every way: it's UI is cleaner, it's quicker, it's easier to follow comment threads and sort them, etc. Not to mention that there are no "sponsored" posts (ads) and banner apps every other post or comment..

How is the first party app better, exactly?
