    if posible the whole of reddit should just limit/disable posting if possible
    and un privet the subreddits for historic reasons .

    48 hours is just not gonna make a significant effect on reddits wallet

    the strike should be atleast a few months .at this rate the protest will do fuck all

    i love lurking on reddit .but while on lemmy its not so hard to forget reddit

    The move to the fediverse should be permanent. We should try to move the most important stuff here

    Going un-private will allow people to discuss what kbin/lemmy instances they had migrated to during the strike

    It’s a good point, I hope alot of subreddits continue indefinitely like some have said they will. Although reddit is unlikely to change their decision, I’m happy with the result. If Lemmy stays even a fraction as active as it is now after the blackouts then Lemmy will be the better choice for me personally.

    I didn’t use Lemmy before because of how small it felt, but after the blackout every community is bursting with life and I can see Lemmy completely replacing reddit for me.

    Hopefully enough refugees feel the same :)

      I’m here for it. Used reddit since digg, saw the tide turning and I believe the same thing is happening again. As subreddits become public again with no change from spez, I have zero interest to return to Reddit. I’m here for the fediverse.

    It was a limited scale action to show the impact possible. If reddit indeed won’t move it could become indefinitely. /r/ffxiv already wanted to move it to a week or indefinitely.

      The problem with this thinking is that “limited scale” is easy to wait out. Grow some balls and make it indefinite.

    Kinda boring to unprivate the subreddit, if it stayed private longer maybe more people would switch to Lemmy - personally I’m staying with Lemmy it’s active enough to replace reddit for me; and better in every way. Social media freedom ❤️❤️
