No one really knows how things will play out but I was wondering if people are committed to Lemmy, or would the mod team migrate to greener pastures if a better, more functional alternative comes to the forefront.
I’m hoping Lemmy can improve but I personally don’t love using it. Its still early days though so that might change. There are a couple promising alternatives in development right now but since they aren’t out, everyone is migrating to lemmy.
As someone with a disability, the UI/UX is problematic and makes me physically ill after using it for a short period of time.
The short summary is that Raddle couldn’t handle the influx of new signups while also dealing with spam issues (they closed new signups during that period). Also keep in mind Raddle’s admin is anti Lemmy hence the reaction to /r/Piracy attempting a Lemmy move. All that aside the /f/Piracy community there still exists & probably would still serve as a smaller fallback IMO, certainly better than going back to Reddit.

That’s really for the admins to elaborate on if they wish - but there’s a thread over there explaining the fallout https://raddle.me/f/meta/138290/r-anarchism-r-piracy-mod-decides-redfash-project-is-better

What does Raddle’s admin have against Lemmy?
Thanks for the link. That does make sense. I feel like that and the lack of a mobile app does complicate things
