Anything new with beehaw and the lemmyverse? Are we still changing platforms? Things seem a lot more quiet now. Is that really a bad thing though? How are you?

It’s definitely quieter than it was back in june but Lemmy/Kbin are very much alive at this point.
I’ve been able to not come back to reddit since then, and I’m not really missing it tbh
Mostly same for me. The only thing I still use reddit for, are those weirdly specific Google searches when I need to troubleshoot a tech or game issue. Append “reddit” to almost any of your web searches and the results are usually much more helpful than what you get on official forums (especially the official Microsoft support page, fuck that :c) or the crap that Google throws on the first results page.
Yeah, it will take years to topple reddit on that front, but let’s not be hasty and move one step at a time
Oh absolutely. I kind of like that Beehaw isn’t moving at lightspeed. It has somewhat of a forum-y feel to it and less like social media.
Beehaw definitely reminds me of the couple of vBulletin forums I used to post on back in the day. Smaller scale, mild pace, and I start to recognize people after sticking around a while. Much more of a community feel. I really missed that.
How is reddit doing these days? They seem to have slipped out of the news (quite understandably) for the time being.
Seems to have a lot more bots since the drama than I ever remember noticing before. I know historically there’s been a lot of accusations over the years of reddit users being bots based what position they’re taking in an argument so I wanna clarify I don’t mean it like that, I mean it in the sense of GPT-style errors in the flow of conversation. OP asks how to do something, commenter responds “I agree” before answering the question. That kinda thing.
I’ve recently logged into Reddit, and noticed I’ve been banned from another sub I haven’t participated in over 6 months… so I’d say it’s doing as before, with retroactive moderation in full blast.
Tbh I don’t know and I don’t care
