Just one last shitty surprise from Spez.
5 o’clock PDT on a Friday
Just like a damn coward would.
Makes sense, cuz he is one lol
Rip Reddit
Middle of a Friday evening here in the US. Not a bad move on his part, a good chunk of the userbase is out drinking.
I think the opposite - it was a dumb move on his part because people now have the weekend to learn about and get used to lemmy. People getting off work and discovering their reddit apps are dead will probably look for alternatives.
This exactly. Deleted RIF (was like putting down a beloved pet) and went in on trying to access the Thunder app like a madman. Between having Lemmy on mobile as well as right here, at home… I’m set. Almost want to thank Spez for pushing us off the roof of a burning building only to land on the ground floor of something new and potentially even better than Reddit
How do you like Thunder so far?
Yo! In all honesty I’ve been using Connect a lot more as of late. It has more of the RiF vibe about it. A lot of people are hyping up the upcoming Boost for Lemmy, so I’ll check that one out when it releases too!
Thank you! I’ll have to check that one out too!
yeah I got off around 6:30pm EST and my Apollo wouldn’t load, constantly crash. It opens now, but nothing loads. It’s dead and gone. Actually surprised me spez would pull it early. Fuck Spez
Timezones
I know, I keep seeing this tonight. “They didn’t even wait until midnight.”
Yes, they did. It just wasn’t your midnight.

You do these things when engineers are still in the office.
Lol, killing access like this is the push of a button. Literally can be scheduled.
I think it started July 1st, GMT. So, for instance, that would be 8pm EST for me here.
