Totally not suspicious timing at all.

Also if you’re willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They’re not fooling anyone.

    I like Lemmy, it’s much more mellow and the discussions are much better. I’ve given up on Reddit personally. But sometimes people here have a crazy idea in their heads that Reddit is actually going to suffer and lose people and Lemmy is going to take them all in. I don’t think the majority of Reddit is going anywhere even with their fuckups

      The majority doesn’t have to go anywhere. Just the most engaged people (the ones who will be visiting /r/place, for example) who provide the value that keeps the other ones visiting and viewing ads. Once they’re the only ones left the site will be basically a zombie.

      It takes time for giants to fall. Digg is still around to this day, and Reddit will likely be around a decade from now too. It just won’t be the “front page of the Internet” any more.
