@[email protected] @[email protected] It also looks like they will not be holding a poll about closing the subreddit forever.
It's disappointing how they made this move of reopening without any sort of poll, since the community is the most important part imo.
The day before the blackout, I made a poll on a small niche game sub (Rune Factory). I want to test how many redditors plan to leave reddit (either before or after the blackout.) And the result is mostly staying. 😔
@Tsunami45chan it does seem migration is so small though, r/truegaming has like 1M users, yet the Kbin equivalent has just 160 or so.
I don't know what's going to happen in the end of the month, the situation might be different or not. But I do believe that a some redditors will migrate to lemmy or somewhere else. If reddit makes more dumb decision redditors will flee little by little. Also I'm going to miss the rune factory sub because the community there was nice. 😢
@Tsunami45chan I do wonder whether forums might see a rise though, I was talking with someone else about squidboards and talking about Discourse (a free open-source forum software, https://discourse.org) as a viable forum platform for people
@Splatoon Unofficial I've never heard of discourse. But I'm not ready to sign up a new forum site because I just joined here three days ago. Thanks for the suggestion.
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Discourse is a more stable platform than what SquidBoards uses, and quite frankly people, should go literally anywhere instead of reddit at this point. Spez was publicly praising Elon Musk on NBC recently.
@sladewatkins @[email protected] @[email protected] I personally use Discourse quite frequently, and I've found it to be a good platform to use.
Not quite sure what Squidboards uses (I've never touched the website), but the only big downside to Discourse is it's mobile app imo. The mobile app on Android literally is just a way to get notifications from multiple servers in one place, that's it.
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] SquidBoards uses Xenforo, which is paid and ancient at this point.
Discourse, however, is built to be modern *and* open-source: https://github.com/discourse/discourse
@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] I do think the mobile app needs some work, though. I don't use it personally because I prefer to just use web notifications and pop onto the forums directly!
