Would be nice if we could eventually move from an instance about reddit to an instance on what reddit used to be about.
In case you don’t know r/TrueReddit was mostly about discussing newspaper articles on all kind of subjects like in the Screenshot. Some people basically wrote ungraded essays but the discussions were nice at times and the articles were top notch.
A similar thing would be great over here too, but I think it shouldn’t be in some way reddit-adjacent and I don’t think this community could ever shift to that. Not after what’s happened. There needs to be a new thing especially since this community is more about bitching about Reddit you know? If it was that easy a ton of subs on reddit would be about something completetly different than what they were established for. You don’t just change an established agenda just like that.
Lemmy in general often feels a lot more like old Reddit already, which is what TrueReddit tried to hold on to.
im game, it was originally meant to capture the reddit of yore when comments were still new.
