Capitalism.

Capitalism is like cutting off your wings because you believe the reduced weight will make you fly higher.

If you acknowledge it, you're already smarter than the majority of the Reddit user base

I wouldn't worry. Those are the people that joined Reddit late (in the last few years) and came from other social media platforms (like Facebook). I think Lemmy is safe for a long while at least.

I won't go back. I'm a full lemming now.

I joined in the last few days. Seems like this site has much better content. Less bots and reposts. Plus, the user base seems a lot more intelligent in general at this point.

Crap. This is the first I've heard about it. Figures. Yes, now I'm definitely worried it won't happen. This is how it goes every year for Arsenal transfers though. They excite fans with these small feelers to good players, and when their bids are easily turned down, they settle for sub-par signings. Maybe not always the case, but generally it feels that way (Lemar, Buendia, Dembele, Suarez for example).

I'm a masochist. So, obviously I support Arsenal.

I tended to use Reddit for smaller niche communities, many of which I do not see here yet. For example Eldin Ring, Ghost of Tsushima, Hot Sauce, Gifrecipes, Rings of Power, PTCGL. It will be nice when these can be created and have enough people to make it interesting but it's not there yet.
