Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Description: A new sticky post on the 196 subreddit with a poll to decide whether the subreddit should reopen.
The subs that closed in protest should stay closed until reddit reverses their decisions. If that's never, then so be it. When workers go on strike, they don't stop until a deal has been made, why should this be any different. Have some fucking integrity.
If you look at the mod that's hosting the poll they never even left the site. This doesn't feel like something they're doing for the benefit of the community, it feels like they're doing it because they're addicted to the platform and aren't willing to make a community elsewhere. It just happens that they can open a poll and all the people that already left aren't going to have a chance to say no.
Not too mention that they're hosting it on Reddit itself, which requires an account to vote on polls. When many people already deleted their accounts.
Lmao, going back to suck spezs cock.
time to lose all the progress we've made i guess
I don't really see this being a threat to this community. There's a big subset of users who were never going to migrate to Lemmy, no matter what. Perhaps some of those users can be coaxed over here now that they're directly reachable again via the subreddit.
The answer should be: no. Here's the poll btw. for anyone interested.: https://www.reddit.com/poll/15c0bvr About 2.9k in favor to 900 against atm. Results may be influenced by survivorship bias.
update? i think a mod made an announcement on the lemmy instance
What was the point of the boycott then?
It created a mass exodus of users, especially active ones who post content, who have founded communities elsewhere. Lemmy exists, and for a lot of users Lemmy has completely replaced their reddit addiction. Though subreddits reopen, the quality of content has gotten significantly worse, and for users fed up with Reddit, they now have a viable alternative to go to
Looks like the vote is an overwhelming yes, everyone that wanted it to stay closed moved here.
Subreddit moderators live without having power over a group of people challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
It smells like a scab to me
