Did we hug the site to death?

Yeah it's definitely lemmy and not the entire planet.

BTW, I know you’re obviously on Lemmy now, do you still think Reddit today is better?

[–] ShittyRedditWasBetter@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In a ton of ways. Lemmy is a mess. But I do hope it's successful as a platform.

Can I ask why you’re here instead of Reddit if you think that?

I'd love for it to succeed.
