The /r/videos mods are going all out and someone made this lovely graphic to explain why subs are going dark next week.

While I’d love to have my users on Lemmy, I also hope that this actually does something for Reddit and they reverse course on their planed changes.

    Oh, I’ve been creating a lot of tech content, like my old days on Reddit. These days I mostly lurk on LGTQ subreddits though and idk how the Lemmy community feels about that (not that I have much to post in that regards anyways, link/forum wise)

        /r/buildapc and /r/buildapcforme. Has been helpful to get a general idea of what parts to get and feedback on if the build is balanced for what the user intends.

        /r/buildapcsales, /r/gamedeals, /r/consoledeals are other ones. There’s sites like isthereanydeals and pcpartpicker, but those subs have come in helpful for catching deals I would have missed.

        (not op but) I primarily used reddit as a collective watchdog. If something of import was happening, it would be on the front page rapidly.

        It’s how I found out it became legal for me to marry in 2012, and it’s how I found out it became legal to kill me in Florida in 2023.

        Mostly just general content and discussion lol. I know, I’m not being part of the solution of adding more content/discussion lol.

          It’s not easy. I’m going to make an effort but I’m much more of a lurker.

          I’m trying to find areas where i can actually contribute but at the moment it doesn’t seem there are many of my interests here yet.
