/me waves from powerlessness.

I wonder what would happen if redditors just start ignoring rules... 🤔

The ones who stay probably do see themselves as powerless, which is a pretty self-fulfilling prophecy.

they aren't powerless, they just leave.

I´m genuienely baffled why the mods of those protesting subs didn´t, at least as a backup plan, also created an alternative community on here right away. Sure, in the beginning, they might have hoped the protests could work. But even after the first two days blackuot, it was pretty clear that Reddit didn´t care at all. So why even fight this fight and not just go "Well, have fun without us Reddit. And here´s a tutorial on how to join us over at lemmy." EDIT: I know some did. r/piracy I believe were pretty open about packing up and moving to lemmy. And as the days go by, more and more "stuff" I used Reddit for also pops up on some lemmy server or another. Still, an at least fairly organized move would have been nice.

Oh. Cool. Yet another reddit drama thread in /c/technology

When do we change the name of this community to /c/YetAnotherRedditDramaCommunity instead of /c/technology ?
