Is this an error of some kind, or is this post actually that old? I’m using Liftoff so I’m not sure how to check for an actual post date.

… I’m so stupid. I’ve been a Reddit user for over 12 years, constantly use “site:reddit.com” in online searches, have been DMing a currently 2.5 year long 5e campaign, and never once thought to look for a subreddit dedicated to DnD DMs… Welp, here’s hoping someone creates a similar community here.

I can’t tell if this is a serious question or not, but it’s pretty complicated to fully explain. The short of the long of it is that now that MySpace has started to use retina verification for their 2FA, people are upset that it’s an invasion of privacy due to the reflective nature of human ball eyes. Since Lemmy only requires a password for mod accounts, it’s an easier platform for people to use to share embedded auto play music and glittery gifs. I don’t think it’ll last though, word on the street is that Digg is going to be removing all authentication methods soon, so I expect a majority of the userbase will move there

Honestly the best thing for Lemmy would be if Reddit did completely reverse this decision and retain it’s users. Then, Lemmy would remain relatively small and act as a much better internet community. If Reddit loses a large portion of it’s users to Lemmy (to be fair, I am one of these people), then eventually Lemmy will become a festering wound as well. I mean, when Reddit was young it felt just like Lemmy does today, and none of us at that time could have ever expected it to end up this way.
