It’s going to take time to reposition, but for the long haul this is the best course of action, personally I’ve uninstalled and blocked - but I do miss some of the subreddits from before.
This community seems to be in its early steps, so every contribution means progress, and sooner rather than later we’ll be back to where we want to be!
It’s hard to wrap my head around the idea of sending death threats, people walking around with so much hate filled up that they lash out at the most detrimental things.
It’s a corporate decision, protests (subreddits going dark) and constructive critiscm from the userbase is the only way to make the voice heard.
I’m happy that another platform (Lemmy) existed which is more suitable and designed like the old.reddit.com layout to migrate to. Otherwise this ordeal would really suck.
