I find that a large majority of redditors are still somehow completely clueless about what’s happening.

So I made this little formatted summary of events inviting confused redditors to lemmy/kbin if anyone wants to copy/paste; seems to get people to understand.

Unfortunately, the majority will not care. Reddit’s app ranks first in iOS’ app store after Twitter. This is what Reddit wants, people to stop using third-party apps so that they can easily target ads to users.

Even a small portion of users switching to Lemmy/kbin (like us) will mean more competition in the long run.

Specially with great looking ios apps like Artemis in the works that you could easily recommend

@OtakuAltair At this point I don’t care about redittors or reddit. It can go on to be wildly successful, doesn’t matter to me, I’ve moved on.

Alot of us wouldn’t be on here either if it wasn’t explained to us; I think the confused people deserve at least an explanation too
