Yeah, I’m big into the NFL and fantasy football subreddits, so I’m glad it’s the off season, but once the season starts I’m going to really miss those threads.

I agree. Lemmy takes a bit to get used to. I think if content starts to get worse on Reddit, more people will get bored and switch. Hopefully by then those early kinks in lemmy will have been cleared out.

I agree. There’s definitely work to be done but considering the massive influx I think it’s doing pretty decently okay

This would be interesting to see if certain articles were pushed up or down by bot accounts.

This could be anywhere from news articles being buried/promoted or by hidden advertising within a post.

1.2 mil bot accounts? Can they each send me $1?

Gotta cash in on that life insurance check while you’re still alive!

That’s the thing though. The current mods are volunteers. Is Reddit going to replace them with paid mods or are they going to hope other volunteers step up? It could turn into a shit show if subs go unmodded or are poorly moderated.

Or Reddit is going to have to spend money paying for moderators, which is great but another consequence of their decision.
