MODERATORS
Lemmy definitely scratched the Reddit itch for me, and I don't see myself going back. Unfortunately however, it is still a huge container of information that I still find myself relying on if I need to search for something.
The information contained in past posts and comments on Reddit is immense. Usually, the easiest way for me to find advice is a Google search that includes “Reddit” in the search field. It almost always returns a comment with exactly the information I was looking for
I was looking for support for a network issue and google returned me to several Reddit posts. Everyone of them was deleted or the sub was private. It’s usefulness it’s diminishing real quick.
as a software dev this also make me sad, but I hope chatgpt can fill that gap left by reddit
ChatGPT was probably trained on that data. ChatGPT remembers... like an elephant.
