I saw the recent API charge news with Reddit and saw that people were discussing alternatives to Reddit in the event we all have to abandon it.

Joined Lemmy here and noticed one of my favorite subreddits had no Lemmy equivalent — so I created it.

I have no desire to be a mod, so if anyone wants to take on that role just let me know.

I’m just hoping people do post here if they’re checking Lemmy out and seeing what’s available community-wise.

  • Yeah the Lemmy admins said that they want people to make new instances and such, but if Lemmy were to take off I think what we’ll see is reddit communities replicated on the main instance or a currently popular alt instance like beehaw. I’m personally waiting a little bit for my favorite subs to pop up here with alternatives because I don’t have the time to mod, but I fully expect them to show up on the main instance if they show up on Lemmy at all.
