Comment on I have a bunch of questions: Whats the best way to get this platform's feed to compete with reddit?
CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 1 day agoMost people here do not give a shit about Reddit anymore and frankly are tired of hearing about it. We really don’t want the dregs of Reddit coming over here. We got most of the good people when the API bullshit started 2 years ago, and that’s why this place is great. We don’t want to become what we left behind.

Take down Reddit ≠ turn into Reddit

Making the mission be about taking down Reddit gives Reddit a lot of power and credit. Focusing on making an open future for social media creates a new path forward while treating Reddit like what it is—yesterday’s platform.
There will be people who want to stick with the old platform—just look at boomers and Facebook. That’s ok—if we play our cards right, we will be gaining young users while the older demographic shrinks on Reddit.

Yeah the thing is we don’t want that either. We just don’t care. We see these posts every time there’s a sizable Reddit emigration. I’m not shitting on you, just telling you that you won’t find a lot of interest in that topic here.
