Is there a place to watch lemmy user numbers in real time? interested to see if there’s a spike as users try out something else with their new free time.

      You are welcome. It’s just some users that didn’t get their hug from mom today.

      They got here from Reddit 5 minutes earlier, so that makes them OG lemmings and gives them the right to shit on the latecomers, don’t you know? 😉

      Uhm, dude has his account for two months, so I think it’s save to assume he also is a Reddit refuge. Oh, you know what, it actually says so in his profile.

        Am a reddit refuge. Not trying to push anyone out, but we have the chance to change the old ways before they take hold here.

        Also, as I stated in my post, I think that something of great value was lost. reddit was valuable. I still get reddit links in most of the things i search for (actually, it feels like even more now) for basically any specific computer or technology questions I’m looking into. Half the time it’s deleted, half the time I can’t see the thread without logging in and I’d really rather stand my ground.

        So yeah, for better or for worse, the internet just experienced some big-ass brain drain. I’d say that was something of value.

        Fuck /u/spez though
