I can't wait to be one of the "I was part of the great Reddit migration" dudes when this lemmy stuff inevitably goes tits up in 15 years.

Jokes on us because in 15 years all the instances alive right now will probably be dead and there will be no proof beyond an archive lol

Hadn’t thought about how many people will come back to see their RemindMes on Reddit only to find deleted comments from people that left Reddit nuking their comments.

Did that bot rely on the API that got restricted?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t remember if the bot would work at all, but I was referring to all the people that used one of those tools to delete their comments or mass edit them to something like “this message has been edited because fuck u/spez” or something like that.

Wow, now that I think about it, it is quite scary. Hope that most instances stay alive

Lemmy has been around for a while already, and is open source. It will go tits up like linux didn't. Unless it get abandoned.

Make your own bot. With black jack and hookers.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Y’know what, screw the bot.
