Awesome! Though I guess we should probably start thinking about spinning up new instances to handle the load if Reddit actually implodes entirely.

adminforge also has a libreddit instance now btw, i find libreddit’s interface to be nicer/more modern than teddit’s https://reddit.adminforge.de/r/ModCoord/comments/14cr2is/alternative_forms_of_protest_in_light_of_admin/
Plus I self hosted teddit on the same server where I pirate and when I exported my teddit preferences I found my sonarr and radarr auth tokens in the file
Hmm. We could maybe use a bot on Fediverse that posts a comment with teddit and libreddit links in response to comments with Reddit links so as to facilitate use.
You can also use the libredirect browser addon to redirect websites like reddit to their frontends (libreddit/teddit for e.g), not just for reddit either, youtube has piped, twitter has nitter, etc. All ad-free, and proxied through the instance you use, so in theory its more private, if you choose a trustworthy instance.
thank you <3
What is teddit? I am curious now.
That is awesome but is it affected by the api policy changes?
Essentially 3rd party way to look at Reddit , but with website instead of app
I will be thrilled if we end up with some experienced Reddit mods running communities or instances of their own.
I would welcome them to mod my community with open arms ! I hope we see some of them come over
It will be an interesting time for sure. I hope it can work out in a way that skilled moderators can be compensated for their efforts. It seems like donation-supported instances for niche communities isn’t too unrealistic right now, though that doesn’t solve the volunteer labor problem. Cleverer things will probably become possible as the technology improves.

Well it’s certainly a question of scale. I’ve seen some successful indie projects where the hosting costs are met by donations, but that’s usually when the admin/dev(s) are donating their labor. I struggle to imagine a community that could crowdfund enough for a few reasonable salaries on top of hosting costs.
Though my imagination isn’t particularly strong, so I would be delighted if such a thing came to be!
The last I want after all this is corporations to come and try to take over or spread ads and marketing everywhere. Sure, it will probably happen anyway, but I‘m gonna go to some instance that defederates from them.

Fair enough. I filtered out corpos from Reddit too, while others might like or use these subs. To each their own.
That’s already the case, e.g. lemmy.dbzer0.com
Speaking for myself, I’m enjoying the break!
Served 13 years in Reddit Penetentiary, just joined here, hello
We beleive in second chance here so welcome !
Yeah, the question though is if you believe yourself to be rehabilitated and ready to enter civil society
Civil? Fuck you!
I’m just joking. Are we doing /s here?
I’d like to think that we don’t need it for now but with the migration continuing we might need it soon so let keep it not far
Of course not! That why i stay on the internet
They weren’t all bad years, but the marriage soured over time.
Congratulations. Takes a bit of getting used to, but fun stuff!
Divert more power to hull integrity!
Awesome, more users is good!
Kbin is so nice and seems more stable than lemmy. I spent all of yesterday on a lemmy account with a lot of loading errors and all of today on kbin and not a single error! Well done to the devs.
You’ll get a couple but they’re usually super temporary 503s so it just feels like the Reddit of yore
That’s excellent to hear! I’ve been following the progress of KBin closely. The big thing I’m waiting for is mobile apps
On the plus side, kbin now has a PWA, and it works pretty well.
This is great news! Cheers to everyone who’s making Rexit possible.
Do we have a magazine for new words?)
It’ll be interesting to see if this changes the playing field for social networks in any significant way.
Really happy about this, hope it truly happens. Finally a social in the true meaning of the word.
Excellent news!
First on the list. Sweet.
I find it to be a way better solution than Lemmy for various reasons.

Honestly, the activity on reddit still seems lower than before the Blackout if you look here, especially for a weekend
Text of the post, for those who prefer not to give the traffic:
Greetings all,
We’ve started the protest this Monday, in solidarity with numerous people who need access to the API, including bot developers, people with accessibility needs (r/blind) and 3rd party app users (Apollo, Sync, and many more). r/humor in particular has made a great post regarding protesting in support of the blind people.
Despite numerous past policies and statements, in support of the mods’ right to protest, we have witnessed many attempts this weeks to force subreddits to open (examples: 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7).
In light of this, we recommend to all those supporting this cause that you take the following steps:
review other softer forms of protest (some of them mentioned here);
take appropriate measures to consult with your community;
decide on a course of action, that complies with the ever more draconian admin policies, but still helps send the message that reddit needs to do better on the list of our community demands.
Here is a short list of actions that many subs are already engaging in:
private days (example - Touch Grass Tuesdays, or on the weekends);
restricting the topic of the forum (example: restricting to just pictures or gifs of one personality );
narrowing the topic of your forum (see the example of r/Wellthatsucks;
widening the topic of your forum (see the example of r/interestingasfuck);
marking the subreddit temporarily NSFW or switching to allowing NSFW content. Changing this setting should not be taken lightly (it would be against the TOS); however, if content in your sub happens to also include “nudity, pornography, or profanity”, please take appropriate steps to warn users, including temporarily marking your community as NSFW. This has the undesirable effect of reducing your community’s reach and visibility but, per the Moderator Code of Conduct, it is our duty as moderators to ensure the safety of those viewing our content and provide appropriate warning to anyone who may incidentally view any mature content (see the example of r/Toyota)
linkedin campaign - commenting on the linkedin posts of reddit with info about this protest (demands, and how reddit admins punished protesting mods);
inform reddit advertisers of the current issues;
modifying image posts requirements (all image posts must include an album, and the first picture must be protest-related);
prepare moving the forum to another platform:
https://kbin.social/
https://join-lemmy.org/
https://squabbles.io/
https://tildes.net/;
promote reddit alternatives in the sidebar;
content as usual in an open sub, but the title includes protest language;
remove all sub rules and let the community curate content through up-/downvotes;
open sub and pin anti-staff message (list of unfulfilled promises, terrible decisions), and add to sidebar;
automod sticky on every thread promoting Reddit alternatives;
have automod make scheduled posts about the protest;
increase the age and karma posting requirements through automod;
turn off discovery settings, and popping up on r/all.
As usual:
do not allow or promote harassment of people or communities;
do not allow illegal content, or content that breaks TOS.
We have to work within the limits imposed by reddit, but there is still plenty of ways to get the message to reddit and mass media about the important issues of the protest, that will affect the quality of content on reddit, how people with disabilities can access the site and how mods can fulfill their duties.
Please post below forms of protest in which you engage, or other suggestions.
Favorite thing I’ve read all day aside from Father’s Day cards from my daughters.
What’s the best/least obnoxious way to suggest to communities who haven’t brought up migrating yet that they should consider it?
There’s like 3 subs that if they migrated over, I’d happily just stay here forever and never go back.
