[QUOTE="6pack, post: 2465812, member: 1119"] This. Instead of signing up on umpteen websites, you just need one login/password. Those who complain about reddit, they haven't searched that site for the interesting subs there. Plus there's new subs being created every day. The amount of information you get while troubleshooting anything from house hold stuff to computers is mind blowing. Some advice is bad and outright misinformation but if you know how to sift out such info, you can't help but thank the people who care to share their knowledge with you. If you only read worldnews or other subs and get mad about the kids there blaming India for everything, then you need to search for more. Reddit doesn't revolve around those few big subs imo. I tried some lemmy client from F-droid and the first thing I noticed is a banner saying the poor guys server was overloaded due to the influx from reddit. Since lemmy is just a collection of privately held servers, i doubt it will last long. People don't have infinite money like companies to spend on. They can't scale servers at the rate companies can if the usage is like reddit with 50k+ active users at any time. The answer to Reddit is probably something like Reddit but by another company.
