Making all these posts on Lemmy be about another site.

The community won't flourish if the only thing people are talking about is their social-media ex.

I think we need to give it some time. I was not there when Digg went bad but I'm assuming that in the early days of Reddit, there was a lot of discussion about Digg. Once Reddit reached a critical mass, posts about Digg died down.

exactly what happened but with the addition of some redditors being pissed off that we all jumped onto Reddit.
