July 1, 2023 was the (known in advance) effective date of the reddit API change that killed 3rd party apps. Not really too surprising a bunch of apps for Lemmy started development leading up to that change in order to try to establish a userbase among the refugees. I was one of those refugees.
Yep, the Reddit migration.
It was cool to be here before hand and watch it come in.
Thanks for being welcoming. I was part of that migration.
No worries! I may not remember but did we have an interaction early on?
I think they meant being welcomed by lemmy as a whole.
At least that’s the feeling i had, i also migrated during the API dilemma. Lemmings were really interacting with the new folks and explaining a lot.
Yeah, the existing admins, mods, and users were generally quite welcoming towards new users, even as the platform grew by an order of magnitude in just a few days.
Cool. I was just being cautious as there was a chance I’d spoken to them directly and forgotten their handle. Didn’t want to be rude and forget.
