As you noticed, I had to temporarily enable DDoS protection. Someone is trying quite effectively to distract me from my activities ;p Unfortunately, this may cause some issues with the federation. I will try to cut off the traffic as soon as possible and return to normal operation. Thank you for all your support and patience! :)
The nice thing about Reddit was that you knew the vibe of each of the subs. Since everything is so new here, and the influx so immense, it’s going to take time for the various communities to settle. Unfortunately for the old timers here, the pre-existing magazines here are unlikely to maintain their prior vibe. Hopefully they don’t hate the Reddit exodus too much.
Do not worry about us, kbin.social oldtimers - it was founded only on April, and we are early adopters ;)
I have a feeling most of the exodus is going to be reddit old-timers that might fit in a little better than the rest of reddit, but y’know, remains to be seen.
Oh I hope so. I miss when top comments were actual top tier comments that added to the discussion. Now it’s all about posting jokes.
