Althea@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?88·2 years agoThis crisis has given Lemmy enough users to be a vibrant, viable alternative with the software and apps undergoing rapid development. This means the next time that reddit tries to pull some shit, there will be somewhere for people to go, unlike this time. Lemmy just wasn’t really ready for prime time.
This thread explains the rationale: https://old.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/3sure8/introducing_rpoliticalvideo/
The end result of this was that all videos that had even a slight connection to politics were removed, and the politicalvideo subreddit never took off.

Personally I’d prefer to see politics videos allowed. Back in the early days of reddit, r/videos was full of politics videos with lots of engagement. Finally they sent all that to the r/politicalvideo ghetto to die. I always thought that was too bad.
