Totally not suspicious timing at all.

Also if you're willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They're not fooling anyone.

They cannot possibly think that this is a good idea.

Would be cool if r/place could be used to give some exposure to lemmy. Maybe something like a big "move 2 lemmy" text. But probably difficult to find and coordinate enough people.

What was r/place? Not familiar with it.

Giant public canvas. Once every ten minutes, each reddit user can select the color for any one pixel they want.

Thanks! I do remember that and was late to the last one. That was neat to see.

I look forward to people using it to encourage Rexit. People will add links to Lemmy servers, etc. It will be glorious.

Wow this couldn't be any more transparent. Laziest way to get easy PR after the stream of terrible decisions they've made. Thankfully doesn't look like anyone's buying it.

Looking forward to watching the cat-and-mouse game of people writing "fuck /u/spez" and the admins deleting it. Gonna be a shitshow.

This is going to go about as well as gasoline to out a fire. Surprised they are not locking this to only users with premium subscriptions.

I'm having fun with the Fediverse. I'm pretty sure Reddit doesn't care if everyone leaves. I still like reading news about them but I've not been back. If I accidentally click on someone's posted reddit link (happens a lot - trying to retrain!) I back out quick before it loads.

I have to say though, I'm going through Reddit withdrawal this week. I've also moved away from Twitter. Even though the Fediverse is great, it's still growing and the apps don't have everything I need. I've been grumpy and unsettled and 100% it's because my beautiful Reddit app and routine has gone away.
