The overwhelming majority of Redditors probably don’t really know what the actual issue is, and on the surface, Reddit charging for an API that they’ve allowed free access to for years probably seems logical. Plus, people are creatures of habit, they’d rather go back to the same website they’ve been visiting, with the community that they already know, than try to figure out what the heck a Lemmy is.
Do you think there would be use in having a site like upstract.com (the new popurls) that would aggregate the RSS feeds from all Lemmys and people could just browse through popular somewhat curated posts of the day?
