I made into lemmy.world before they shut down sign ups. I knew I needed to hurry and get on board for the rest of the pack! I'm happy I made it am excited to help this place grow into something fruitful for all of us.

I had bought the premium version 8 years ago for just like ~$3-5. that was such a great deal. i loved the ui and how smooth it worked. they never integrated all those new awards. it was just nice and clean.
RIP RIF. it's the end of an era.
I had over 1k comments removed without any problems
yes! it's one of the options. you can change all comments to whatever you like.
a BS PR spin with lots of vague answers that imply he's doing what's best for the reddit community. that's all it can be. given his history, what else could someone expect? even if he were to roll back all the expected API changes so that everyone could still continue to use reddit as we have been, i'm out. i want nothing to do with that site. it's been getting worse for quite some time, and this was the motivation i needed to leave. plus, not that i found kbin and lemmy, i have no need for that site. i purged my accounts, so that even my accounts don't matter anymore.
In case anyone wants to delete all their reddit comment and posts before leaving, I used this nice little product that did it automatically for me:
i also might have used a github app to delete all of my posts and comments across all of my accounts. i might have done that before reading the post. however, after reading the Apollo author's post, there's no way i might go back to reddit. that is some manipulative shady af bs.
Judging from my experience trying to sign up for a Lemmy instance for the past 2 days, it's going to be hard. Unless I was doing something wrong, I can see a lot of people having difficulty signing up and eventually giving up. kbin was much easier to sign up for.
