I don’t remember what caused the Voat’s origin, except it involved Reddit HQ. And then it went under in 2020.
What’s different about this time and with Lemmy to make it a feasible alternative to Reddit? Is it random chance?

Lemming. They’re like giant hamster or small woodchucks. Rodents.
Famous for group suicides.
Is it named lemmy because… we all follow each other or something?
I think it’s because even if a bunch of instances follow each other off a cliff, there’s still going to be plenty who didn’t join that group that will survive.
Huh, I guess the survival part just isn’t really what I would associate with lemmings, it’s the following each other blindly part (even if it turned out to be the result of a fake documentary).
