Make it seamless for people to migrate. Duplicate comments/posts/vote API calls to Lemmy. Then they could just drop the Reddit side whenever they want, and users wouldn’t have to do any work. Most wouldn’t even notice the change.

Of course they’d have to keep the app up in the meantime, but I’d donate to that fund.

Certainly it’s not simple, and I can just imagine if my CTO asked for this, I would hope it was a joke. However, compared to the effort of all the coordination and time spent protesting…

Christian Can do whatever he wants, he did a good thing by being political enough to spread awareness. I wouldn’t ask more. There’s always incongruencies when doing a migration, but adding a second model for each Reddit primitive is a short list. we don’t need to mirror sidebars or messaging, just posts, comments, votes.

Maybe Apollo should open source.
