Simple question: Will you go back to Reddit and other centralized social media platforms, if Reddit step back from the API changes? The benefits of Reddit are obvisiouly, it has million of users and even small communitys have thousands of users.
For me it’s pretty clear, after deleting my Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Discord accounts, the decentraliced Fediverse is my future in social media. Even with an very much smaller community, i’m not willing to be treated as ad-cow for the big corps.
But what do you think about your future in social media? Fediverse or Reddit, Meta, Google and all the others? Or will you go safe and use both, to have an backup option?

Like most of the other people around here, I will definitely stay at Lemmy. But I will also use Reddit as long as it has viable subreddits for me, that I cannot compensate with a Lemmy alternative.
But I hope, that Lemmy will have the same impact than Mastodon had and that many cool communities will rise from this!
