sub might turn into orca only sub

For those of you out of the loop, Reddit admins took it upon themselves to remove a meme about Orca’s attacking yachts. source

Not even that…literally a screenshot of an article by The Atlantic saying the orcas are bad for attacking boats and then underneath it a scene from The Office with the caption altered to say “You know what? Now I’m going to root for the orcas even harder.” source

        I’m new to the whole Lemmy thing, but isn’t this the snoo-calypse forum, dedicated exclusively to discussion of Reddit?

      Until the Fediverse becomes much larger than it currently is, ditto the robustness of communities here, there’s really not much choice for users like me but to keep visiting both sites for the time being.

        yeah, what choice is there? they might have to be BORED for a few minutes, otherwise. can you imagine that? looking into the void and not having reddit to distract you? i mean, i just thought about that for 5 seconds and I shit my pants twice.

          my solution: if you gotta cave to the craves, READ on reddit but only POST on federated. this will kill them long-term, and for me at least, its an easy “fast” to hold to. If we only post to federated, the quality here will keep going up. Reading doesn’t help reddit stay alive (at least not compared to writing, giving them “content”).

          Dozens & dozens. For example, I currently have 14 multi-reddits set up. One of them that I’ve named “flood” contains the subs below.

          /r/altcomixx /r/AmerExitx /r/AmItheAssholex /r/Aquariumsx /r/AskRedditx /r/badhistoryx /r/catsonglassx /r/cfsx /r/Chinax /r/ChoosingBeggarsx /r/ColorizedStatuesx /r/comicstriphistoryx /r/fuckHOAx /r/graphicnovelsx /r/guineapigsx /r/HobbyDramax /r/howitsmadex /r/HybridAnimalsx /r/IDOWORKHERELADYx /r/IndianCountryx /r/japanx /r/japanlifex /r/kidsinthehallx /r/KitchenConfidentialx /r/KITHx /r/learnfrenchx /r/mashx /r/minipaintingx /r/Miniworldsx /r/Nipponx /r/OldSchoolRidiculousx /r/PixelArtx /r/plantclinicx /r/PoliticalHumorx /r/PropagandaPostersx /r/puzzlesx /r/reclaimedbynaturex /r/slavelabourx /r/spelunkyx /r/spicyx /r/StartledCatsx /r/Survivalx /r/ThriftStoreHaulsx /r/TwoXChromosomesx /r/vintageadsx /r/whatsthisbirdx /r/whatsthisbugx /r/whatsthisplantx /r/youarefiredx

          AFAIK there is currently no way to do the equivalent of multi-reddits in Lemmy, which is basically a way to do custom-themed streams of content.
