My lemmitard in christ it hasnt happened yet. We are only a small .1% of crossovers and the whole fediverse is still less populated than r/malefashion advice.
But why male models?
They’re half right. Discord is a horrible platform. Why tf would they go there?
Thank you.
There’s an ad in the end if you want to trim it.
Definitely. The mods that pretended to give a damn and then punking out were extremely disappointing.
It’s fine enough to disagree with the protests over 3rd party apps. And at the end of the day it is such a small issue. But if you’re going to do something, be about it.
How did he mess up? He’s cashing out and burning the place down behind him. This is all standard practice in vulture capitalism. It happens every day, but you don’t see or care because most of the companies it happens to aren’t centered around a social platform you spend all your free time on.
But not every such sub has >5 million members - this one is big.
They probably manually created those users directly in the database.
If any I’m glad the mods got their life back
The only reason I go back to reddit is to copy/paste a modmail I wrote to those asking to get in. I end it with listing asking them to think about some Reddit alternatives and link the sites too. (I list: Lemmy.world, kbin.social, tildes.net and squabbles.io in that order)
Lemmys been a great alternative, hope it starts to take off
Starts? My sibling in Christ, it’s happening already.
Showed Lemmy to a few friends and my significant other. Hopefully it keeps gaining critical mass with all the negative attention Reddit’s been having.
I think once threads is federated that should become the club to the knees of Reddit. I hate Meta but I enjoy threads.
Props to the mods for sticking to their guns.

The Reddit debacle continues as it replaces the r/malefashionadvice subreddit moderators following their refusal to reopen to the public.
Reddit followed through on its threat to take over subreddits if they did not reopen to the public with its takeover of r/malefashionadvice on Thursday. Prior to closing down in protest of Reddit’s API price changes. The subreddit was one of the biggest on the platform that was still engaged in the protest, boasting more than five million subscribers.
Reddit reached out to moderators telling them if they didn’t reopen their subreddits they would be in violation of the company’s moderator code and could be replaced. “We more or less have been expecting the removal for the past few days,” one former moderator of r/malefashionadvice, who asked to go by “Walker,” told The Verge.
A Reddit administrator warned r/malefashionadvice it would be replaced if it didn’t reopen and a month later, it stayed true to its word and took over the platform. The subreddit originally had three moderators but was replaced on Thursday with just one, ModCodeofConduct. Reddit users can once again browse the content on r/malefashionadvice, but it will be in a restricted mode that prohibits all but certain users from making new posts.
Although ModCodeofConduct has taken over the subreddit, the mod posted a call for people to volunteer to become a moderator for the page on Friday, telling people to comment on the post to volunteer.
ModCodeofConduct has also taken over other subreddits including r/ShittyLifeProTips, r/AccidentalRenaissance, r/oldbabies, r/fordtransit, and others.
Major Reddit moderators went dark last month in protest of the company’s announcement that it would be raising its API prices, saying it was necessary because Big Tech companies like Microsoft and Google are using its data to train AI models. The site’s API allows other companies to use data from Reddit to bolster their own products and services, but the change would mean a large surcharge for premium access.
Nearly 9,000 subreddits temporarily shut down on June 12 in protest, but in a group statement, moderators said, “Others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed since many moderators aren’t able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app,” The Guardian reported. It continued, “This isn’t something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.”
And now i am here. Fuck them. I will never go back.
Welcome!
now let’s create our own r/place here. how can I help?
The comments on the post the mods made yesterday about discord are awful. “Get over yourselves,” “Spez owned you guys,” “Why would we go to Didcord, we chose Reddit.” They’re all from accounts that are 8+ years old that have never interacted on MFA or didn’t start commenting until Rexxit started.
Did you coin “Rexxit”? Because, it’s a thing of beauty.
Sadly I didn’t, it came about pretty early on.
It’s both current and prophetic… ;)
I agree it’s a great name, but I am still annoyed by it’s real world counterpart. I guess brexit was all about racism and corporate greed, while rexxit is the same but opposite.
