I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.

Edit: Wow this blew up!

Edit 2: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!

Edit 3: RIP my inbox! I can’t believe this made /r/all!

Edit 4: We did it Reddit! Lemmy!

    I actually want certain subreddits to go live again precisely because I can link users to Lemmy. Right now there are many communities whose members are feeling lost without Reddit - not because of a love for reddit, but because it was the only group for that community. Show them Lemmy and some could migrate, even if slowly.

      Some subs are pointing to Lemmy. The Star Trek instance is awesome , less about complaining about the shows, more about fun trek stuff. Fell in love
