Good. This is part of the protest, reddit doesn't deserve the complete monopoly of information.
Dude, that's not the point, the point is, the info was right there, and now, it's not... it's frustrating when you know that someone had the exact same issue as you and asked on reddit and there was a reply that solves the problem, but someone protesting thought it was a good idea to delete all of his/hers comments, plus the user ๐.
I agree with protesting, but this is just... excuse the language, but idiotic IMO.
I know what you're saying, but protest is supposed to be disruptive, so yeah. Reddit's only a host for that information, it's the right of the person to rip that comment off the internet, nothing idiotic about it. Giving Reddit the information to monetize while quitting is like paying the shop that rip you off while stomping out the store.
Do ask the question here though, maybe someone else can help.
I asked the same question on the Void comm here, no replies ๐.
Some people just don't get it, some subs will never shift over to Lemmy... ever. The Void sub is a perfect example, their sub is their help/troubleshooting forum. It's a means to an end for them and the maintainers will never ever shift over here. Too unstable and unusuable for them. Basically, they don't care about reddit policy or API pricing, it doesn't affect them, it's a niche sub. And the number of people on Lemmy that use Void is... just close to none... and even if there are some, they probably don't know how to fix the problem I've been having since I asked and there were no replies. I litelarly copy/pasted the same title and text there, on reddit whwn I asked the question.
