There’s less Reddit meta content on Reddit, why did I come here?
I got downvoted here because I asked why the front page is basically 50+% about Reddit. I’m so sick of hearing about reddit here, can’t users make their own content or are we just going to discuss reddit for years? so pathetic
To be fair, it’s like therapy for a breakup, and we all know who the ex is.
It’s like shared group therapy for a whole lot of people who had the same abusive ex
And unfortunately there are fresh breakups every day. So for some it’s been a while but others it’s been 24 hours.
If you are ready to move on, mess with your blocklist to remove reddit, see you first pioneer! As to venture out myself, if you find anything cool, mention me
You came here because we need more soldiers
I’m doing my part 😂
You’re not alone in giving a grand total of zero shits about reddit at this point.
It’s one misguided poster spamming the shit out of a bunch of instances, but this post itself seems to imply a more widespread problem.
What are you trying to achieve with this post? Would you like to spark conversation about this particular person’s crusade ? Or are you the umpteenth poster this month complaining about content referencing Reddit?
Honestly, the bitching about the bitching about Reddit is becoming pretty fucking tiresome, imho. Why are we talking about this? Why did you make this post? Why not just downvote that asshat’s content and move on? It doesn’t contribute, you allegedly don’t care, why post to complain about complaints?
But super-honestly, the bitching about the bitching about the bitching is worse. Why did you make this comment? Why not just downvote that asshat’s content and move on? It doesn’t contribute, you allegedly don’t care, why comment to complain about complaints about complaints?
We can do this as many times as you’d like, you still won’t have made a point.
Ok but even more super-honestly, the bitching about the bitching about the bitching about the bitching is worse. Why did you make this comment? Why not just downvote that asshat’s content about that other asshat’s content and move on? It doesn’t contribute, so why comment to complain about complaints about complaints about complaints?
We should not do this as any more times probably…also google en passant.
Dude thinks that a valid complaint about an annoyance validates the annoyance. It’s an ages old internet trope. Similar to the “I won because you don’t respond to me anymore!”
it’s bitching all the way down
The wall of fucking spez is finmy, but I find it FAR funnier to see how something that was one of reddit’s most popular things ever just a few months ago is NOTICABLY less popular. All of the biggest communities that were represented on the drawing earlier this year are nowhere to be seen. All that’s left this time around is just random disconnected drawings and massive flags. The soul is gone.
So yeah, stop fucking spamming the canvas and just let it be empty and soulless. It sends a bigger message.
There was a lot of talk about the admins erasing stuff. My guess is they’ll ensure it doesn’t look too empty.
I’m ignoring it, though. I don’t want to give them traffic on a platform they can control. The real question is why can’t we set up something similar here?
This isn’t even originally from Reddit… It used to be called “drawball”.
They were stupid to bring it back anyways, it only succeeded the second time because enough time had passed for the people that remembered it and there were plenty of new people to participate. This time neither is true
It seems like they brought it back to drive up traffic. They know people will put those things on it, but they can edit all they want and going over there to “protest participate” still drive traffic to their site. In 6 months when they tell investors how successful the last place event wad, no one is going to want to see the final picture, they’re just going to look at the numbers.
Place was stupid when we were on reddit, its sure as he’ll not worth going back for
I guess a big Chuck of lemmy users come from reddit. Not because they actively chose lemmy, but because reddit became unbearable for them.
They will oft course generate a lot of content about reddit, since they are getting through a rough “breakup Phase”.
I would love to see more acceptance for that, maybe then the ex redditors will like it here more.
The problem I’m seeing lately is that a lot of folks are bringing some of the things that were already unbearable about reddit with them…
Like “based”, “this”, “underrated comment”, etc… So much stupid lazy garbage.
Edit: to OP… The “this” referenced in my comment was not directed at your title (hilariously enough)… I only meant that one as a one word comment reply and didn’t even realize that was your title when I commented… 😂
Unfortunately unless we are absolute in our condemnation of low-effort comments, they will eventually proliferate and become “accepted” and commonplace.
It’s not super common yet on Lemmy, but as we get more popular the race to the bottom for low-effort comments is inevitable.
Moooooom! I’m too tired to put effort into my respooooonse 😪
Yea seriously, for people supposedly wanting to leave Reddit they sure seem intent on giving it tons of traffic
Forced to leave reddit is not the same as wanting too.
No one was forced to leave Reddit. They didn’t say you couldn’t use their site, they just said you had to use their app to do so and you CHOSE not to.
Now I clearly support that decision since I made the same one myself but don’t act like it wasn’t a decision we made.
Turning the place into a capitalist shithole forced me to leave when the only way I accessed the site for 13 years disappeared. That was not my choice. But you know that because you’re disingenuous, not stupid, right?
