    a lot of people back on Reddit could not give less of a shit about the issues and just want their content; they even see this as just mods powertripping again

    it’s kind of annoying to see that, tbh, even if I sort of get it

      A look at those people’s comment histories might be interesting, to see if they’re the ones contributing content worth reading.

      I suspect I can guess the answer.

      Damn, the apathy is strong but I do get it. After all, Reddit was mostly a place for me to deflate and relax or just read things during downtime.

      they could easily have their cake and eat it too by signing up to lemmy. There are a lot of instances out there and they could make their own if none fit.

        but that’s not immediate and requires some work and effort (to figure out how federation works, to figure out how Lemmy works, to learn how to create an instance and to make one, to start over with an entirely new community); many on Reddit want the easiest path to get their content

        which again, understandable, but still annoying to see

      it’s kind of annoying to see that

      Why would that be annoying? It means the strike is working, it does exactly what it is meant to do. If the consumers don’t find content, they will ultimately move elsewhere

      I haven’t seen that. Everyone seems to be rather upset about Apollo, RIF, Relay, etc. The only person I’ve seen suggesting power tripping mods is u/spez.
