For the record, I fully support what the remaining mod team is doing, they are a wonderful group and I trust them completely. I don’t regret the choices I made, only that my actions got a few other mods shit canned in the process.

    How best do you recommend continuing the protest? Simply stop using reddit altogether, or is there a malicious compliance you recommend?

    Unfortunately, that’s probably the only route, IMO

    My usage has gone down significantly since the API changes but I haven’t been able to kick it altogether.

    While it’s not exactly a perfect replacement for reddit yet, lemmy can help with that, i’ve found. If you click to the “all” feed you can basically get a slows/less populated version of reddit r/all. Really all it lacks at the moment is user participation, which has been climbing a lot over just the past few weeks.

      Just to add, sorting All by Top Hour/6H keeps the content fresh. The default Active sorts by comments and favors 1-2 day old threads while Hot regularly resurfaces weeks old threads for some reason.

        After I subscribed to a Canada sublemmy, there was a full two days where I was just constantly being bombarded with threads from literal years ago I’d see a shockingly frightening news thing, click on the thread, start reading, realize this all sounded familiar, and then realize this was like covid news

      First post on here, I have as well followed after the dndmemes mod fiasco by Reddit. Question: does Lemmy allow NSFW content? Asking… For a friend.

        Each community is allowed to set their own standards for the rules they have, there’s no server wide ban necessarily against NSFW, so you should check with the mods of a given community

            One such instance is lemmynsfw.com

            You can subscribe to that instance’s communities from your current account, or make an account there for just NSFW (I personally like to keep my NSFW and regular browsing separate and I find that’s the easiest way 🙂)

              I tried subscribing to Lemmynsfw (found it yesterday) with my account but I couldn’t manage. So I registered another account and will swap between this and that on occasion, which is something I never did on Reddit because I was too lazy to swap so I kept everything on the same profile.

              Cheers :)
