This is a Peertube exclusive video where I’m just ranting about Reddit.

    We gotta be careful though, if reddit goes bankrupt Lemmy may go to shit assuming lemmy communities cant handle the influx of new users

    I still hope it happens ofc but still

      If Reddit popped out of existence, not everyone would go to Lemmy.

      • Most would go to Discord, Twitter, and BlueSky.
      • Some would go to various forums (they still exist).
      • Some would spend a lot more time on FB, Tiktok, and Instagram.
      • Some would spawn their own copies of Reddit (Voat). The copies all die in a month.
      • Some would stop bothering with social media entirely.

        i suspect they will move to forums, as they are still mostly around. MEDICAL ones have numerous ones, some general purpose forums, maybe.
