Like many other subs (apparently over 5000) /r/joplinapp is going dark for the duration of the blackout.

The HN thread about it (or one of them): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36283249

One of the top comment puts it nicely:

The cheek of Reddits management is incredible. They've taken hundreds of millions in VC money hired an army of developers and yet delivered nothing to improve the user experience. All we seem to have have got out of is new reddit, a terrible, slow facebook like version of the site and an absolutely terrible mobile app. Where the hell did the money go? They use the time, labour, creativity, stories, humour, talent, wisdom, advice, skills of their users to try and make themselves billionaires whilst delivering a hopeless piece of tech in return, thats only been made useable by others people writing software to make the site bearable, Reddit Enhancement suite, Apollo, RIF. And yet here they are ready to make it rubbish again to get their filthy lucre. The more I think about it the more infuriated I get.

It is great to see a community forming for Joplin on Lemmy, even if getting used to the fediverse, lemmy-style, can be rough around the edges. Still, I was able to use both Mastodon and Lemmy on another instance to follow the discussion - that's truly nice!

Also - a good decision to temporarily close the sub on Reddit, thank you.
