I don't mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I'm curious about people's outlook on this situation.

I like that image that visually represents how subreddits live inside one giant Reddit circle, but communities on Lemmy live inside several circles. You can access all subreddits, and you can access all communities, as far as the users need to be concerned with there's no difference except for more variety.

But for that to truly be easy to use the apps and web interface need major leaps forward.
