Don't @ me, but I soak in the drama of Best of Redditor Updates and the fediverse isn't quite suited to sagas like that yet.
But the guy who needed to not shit for 3 days made it over there. So that feels pretty noteworthy.
It's one of my favourite subreddits just because I like having "real" stuff to read. I was wondering recently if we should just make a community for reposting the best r/BORU posts to Lemmy? And then, assuming Lemmy gets big enough, we'll already have a spot for posting the best of Lemmy updates too.
there's already a !bestofredditorupdates@lemmit.online but a lot of instances block lemmit for being bot content since their whole purpose is to repost reddit content which like. bots are actually super useful for that kind of thing. A LOT of users don't seem to understand that they personally have the power to set instance blocks for their own account. so instead they push for defeds when like. just block the instance from your settings. it's a checkbox. it's not complicated! Sometimes I worry that all the defeds will create little insular echo chambers when the whole point of fedi is diversity.
