We tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesn’t even matter They had to fall - to lose it all But in the end, it doesn’t even matter
So long and thanks for all the fish, we’re all lemmings now.
I just can’t wrap my mind around how quickly this has all gone down
Cut my app into pieces. Lemmy’s my last resort!
Federation. Upvoting, don’t give a f*** what I’m posting for
goodbye boost :^(
When Reddit is Fun turns into Reddit is fucked.
Reddit really is killing the goose that laid the golden egg. An affordable option for API use would have been a good compromise but Spez cant take his head out of his own ass.
This. What these CEOs refuse to understand is that THEY have nothing to do with success of social media companies. It was the contributions that ordinary people brought to Reddit that gave it its value.
Spez and crew literally provided none of the content that makes Reddit relevant. They have monetized content of others for years and have gotten too greedy. Without the community there is no reddit, but it sure as hell can continue without spez.
Spez has been a disaster this June.
This is by design. They’ve got us arguing about the api price, when their goal was to kill off third party apps and get all users on their app so they can data mine us. And the ridiculous api price is a secondary bonus for them, since AI and LLM companies will gladly pay it to sick up the content on the platform.
And the sad part is that it seems like 99 % of Reddit’s population don’t care the slightest about that and are happily enjoying the ad- and telemetry infested piece of garbage Spez wants to shove down our throats.
They will also gradually turn away from the platform as the content quality deteriorates. But it’ll be a slow process.

Worse than Reddit expects, but not as bad as we think it will be.
Reddit will carry on much like Twitter did, with a worse community and content to match.
thank you
Linkin park moment, not even a big fan but I was bored

It starts with-
One post, I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you cry
Keep that in mind they designed this crime
To make some more dime (Thats)All I know
Community is a valuable thing
Watch it migrate as the app users slip
Watch the base fall on the end of the June
The change ticks mods awayIts so very real (They)
Didn’t care our down arrow
Watch the revenue go fly down the window
Tryin’ to make part, you did-didn’t know
I removed it all just to watch you goYou botted everything inside and even though you tried
It all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually
Be a memory of a time whenYou shilled so hard, and got so far,
but in the end we are now all lemmings
You had to fall to lose it all
but in the end, we are now all lemmingsKinda hoping we see lemmy subs increase after July 1… I’d love this platform to take off.
I made subreddits for publicmobile and iphone 13 and now I just found one for lovelive <3
We’ll get back what we lost!
Another blow to the corporate manipulation.
I’m very sad that apollo is gone, but I’m happy to be here.
Infinity for Reddit had a message about becoming a subscription based platform. So I closed my accounts and came here.
Here comes Lem-my
And I say
