Reddit protest updates: news on the apps shutting down and Reddit’s fights with mods - The Verge
Reddit communities went dark to protest recent changes.
You're viewing a single thread.
Haven't been on since I created my Kbin account a few weeks ago. I really just miss my smaller subs like interior and home decorating, houseporn, and the plant subs. at least the houseplant and gardening communities on here are getting some steam. Oh well, I'll live without for now 🤷♀️.
The nice thing about smaller communities is that it’s more like going to the pub than speed-dating; there’s an increasingly familiar regular crowd that feels like community, rather than a focus on quick content, hoping for a spark of interest.
We are gardeners, we go where the sun is, and we shall plant our seeds!
squabbles.io/s/cozyplaces squabbles.io/s/houseplants l've found lemmy/kbin combined with squabbles has covered lot of things. Lemmy has been better for nerdy stuff, and squabbles for more casual memes, gifs, and pics. There's random stuff like squabbles.io/s/castiron
Edit : squabbles.io/s/gardening for more plant stuff.
I've liked squabbles.io/s/dim-lit-aesthetics
I like squabbles because it tends to be simpler, less technical than here. They need more users but the combination of the two sites is scratching the Reddit itch.
Yeah it's nice seeing the different places making an effort to grow the community despite their size. Both places have been very welcoming and have good vibes.
I'll give squabbles another look, I didn't really like it when I was looking for a new place but that was like a month ago, might be a place where I browse a couple places. Thanks for the tip!
browsing in new I have seen a !houseplants but I'm not sure which instance it was on. It would be nice to see cozyplaces or something like it though.
I think houseplants is on mander.xyz
Yeah I've subscribed to a couple of the ones I've found. I'll check out that one too, thanks :)
Yeah cozyplaces was another one I enjoyed too, hopefully we can bring it here haha
