    It’d be even better if all these subreddits indefinitely go dark. As someone who grew up using the “old” internet with Usenet newsgroups and mailing lists for discussions, I am happy that decentralized way doing things might be adopted again.

    Awesome. The Linux community should be among the vanguard of this whole effort given our philosophy.

    Honestly I’ve only been on Lemmy for a few days and I don’t anticipate going back to Reddit. I’ll probably use Reddit for IT help queries periodically but that’s it. I like Lemmy quite a bit more.
