Basically, title.

There are a lot of news recently following the Reddit IPO, and I guess it might be interesting to have a dedicated Reddit community (also, having it elsewhere than LW would be nice to reduce the current hypercentralization), and allow people who aren’t interested to just block it and still enjoy [email protected]

What do you think? Just asking the community first as I know sometimes people are concerned about community fragmentation

PS: thank you @[email protected] for your work animating the lemmy.zip communities!

    I don’t feel like it’s necessary. The technology community is more than enough for Reddit and everything also related to technology, making a separate comm just for Reddit feels a little excessive. As for blocking, most apps have keyword blocks so people can already view the community without the Reddit-related stuff.

      Thank you for your comment.

      I was asking because everytime I post an article about Reddit, even in the dedicated communities, there are people who comment “who cares about Reddit?”

      I assume this would only be even more the case in the !technology community.

      On the other hand, I am myself not interested in all topics handled in !technology, but I like to keep an eye on what happens on Reddit, so that would be a way to only have that content.

      Anyway, let’s see what other people have to say on the matter
