minus-squaretony@lemmy.hoyle.me.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·1 year agoThey don’t seem to realize Reddit isn’t that special. It’s a forum… Digg and Slashdot thought they were special too Myspace before that… They’re just where most people are at the moment. That can and likely will change. Whether it’s Lemmy or something else entirely.
minus-squareAlexWIWA@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoYeah it’s not like Facebook where I need all my friends to move. I just need a few thousand people to move to Lemmy and I’ll never need Reddit again.
