So what we expected finally happened.

Reddit quarantined (and might soon ban) the most active communist subreddit, and one of the very few non-western-supremacist ones left.

We’ve gotten dozens of new applications, and are approving them as quickly as we can.

Here are a few Lemmy mobile apps for Android and iOS, if you prefer using those over the web app.

If you have any questions, or if there’s anything we can help with, new ideas or communities, or anything that can make the transition away from stormfront easier, let us on the mod team know.

Reddit, Silicon valley, surveillance capitalism, bourgeois media, down with them!

Another welcome post describing Lemmy.

    As a former r/CTH poster and hexbear head, welcome to the club! 🍻 Having the rug pulled like this is truly chaotic, but it’s good news that y’all already have a backup ready and don’t have to do a month long hackathon while putting out constant fires in a 10,000 member Discord lifeboat. While the new website is nowhere near as busy as the former subreddit, the independence of having our own infrastructure developed and maintained by trusted comrades is worth it. At the end of the day, Reddit set us free.

    I’m hoping things go as smoothly as possible for y’all. Also, Madeline Albright is dead! Let’s fucking go!
