Yes, that was one of my proposals in OP, to append info about moving to Lemmy at the end of comments, but without removing their original content.

I didn't and wouldn't be using the word protest btw, because we are supposedly past that now! We are done with Reddit for good, supposedly! We just want people to know where we moved!

Which is not explained by .ml fiasco, it is worth pointing out.

And how will people know that there was a protest, and more relevantly, that anything of value has been lost?

More like success exceeded my expectations.

that means I cannot redirect anyone here by any means.

Forgot to mention, as I already alluded to, you can submit a post to your profile mentioning your full/partial move to Lemmy/kbin. Then in the post page trigger "make announcement" and "pin to profile".

Is this a word?

Yeah, I personally don't care about images.

I don't want to make assumptions about what kind of images you post, but I actively block all meme/humor communities anyway.

Images are not text-searchable anyway.

So, all in all, for me, deleting image posts is not that big of a deal.

Thanking for taking the time to read the post and engaging meaningfully.

The perceived condescension was a deliberate addition by my humble self to make sure this post will be suitable for this community, which may not have been necessary after all.

I managed to post something actually unpopular here, and for that at least, I'm glad.

While I don't agree with you, I must thank you for trying engage logically with the arguments presented.

I think what people miss is the big picture: critical masses, growth momenta, hype cycles... etc.

If Reddit is on its way down, it will be on its way down. It will be a question of who will benefit the most.
