The decisions that Reddit made allowed Lemmy and Kbin to grow faster.
I've been wanting to cut down on social media/Reddit for ages. Reddit making it a huge inconvenience to look at the site on mobile has been great for me honestly
Lemmy is a god send for me. It doesn't have endless content, so after a few minutes and a few comments, I just close it.
I genuinely enjoy NOT having access to the endless dopamine
It's absolutely fantastic, there are posts when I open Jerboa that are from yesterday, I haven't seen that since when I first joined reddit ~2010.
If Lemmy doesn't grow at all I'll be perfectly happy, and even if it does I can just hop to another server that has the amount of users I want.
If everything is a dopamine fix, then nothing is.
Same
I'm more than happy they have decided to accelerate their progression towards insignificance.
