I saw some weird pro-reddit content on other reddit-themed communities and then !snoocalypse@lemmy.ml went into archive mode, so I decided to make this to keep it clean from any reddit shills lurking in the dark. I’ll start by posting some historical content.

By the way, anyone know what might be the most anti-reddit lemmy instance? I’d hate to find out that shitjustworks likes reddit and doesn’t want a “watch reddit die” community on their instance.

    I dug back into my profile to find the most recent time it happened to me https://sh.itjust.works/comment/7640949.

    I had a look and those links point to a thread in !asklemmy@lemmy.ml, which is not !reddit@lemmy.ml nor !reddit!reddit@lemmy.world. Both those communities are pretty much anti-Reddit.

    Anyway, feel free to create another one, but be prepared for most of the people to just stick to those two, as they are well established and have large userbases

      Yeah I didn’t want to go digging that far back. I wouldn’t say they’re large. They have a few hundred subscribers while the /r/watchredditdie, etc. subs had more than a hundred thousand and were larger alone than the whole of lemmy.

        They are large comparative to Lemmy’s current size

          Also, isn’t that against the whole notion of Lemmy? To spread things out and avoid concentration?

            There’s a balance to be found between avoiding concentration and spreading too thin. There are multiple gaming communities, there’s only one for Legos
