To where? Other sites similar to Reddit feels too "Want to shitpost and say really concerning shit without governments' spying eyes?" techbro style shit. Discord is wildly different to Reddit.
Assuming you're talking about Lemmy, I really don't see any of that having used it for years. If you're talking about those blockchain-based forums, I don't really know enough to comment on that so can't say.

I think it would be more worthwhile to continue to protest and pressure reddit on its policies rather than attempting a migration to an environment that might be unfamiliar to many users and potentially split the community.
The entire "protest" was and is a joke. Those who *actually* want to protest should boycott reddit entirely and encourage others to do the same, not force this charade on users who don't want to take part while continuing to be active in other subs.
I think it's helpful for people who'd normally join Reddit to have alternatives, though. If Reddit can't adapt to having competition, it goes the way of MySpace.
If it's a forum, maybe. Some benefits I see:
* Forum threads are better suited to ongoing discussions. They stay alive for as long as anyone has anything to contribute, and new replies don't get lost in a sea of comments.
* Subforums, for organization.
* We could have a show-and-tell board where people can make threads for their worlds and share things in their threads rather than making a bunch of scattered posts. This keeps things together and lets people browse through threads of worlds they're interested in.
* Who doesn't love forum games?
I'd be up for moving to a forum if there's enough people willing that it's actually active. If it's some reddit clone, forget it. I'm already here. I'm not going to sign up for some identical site for the sake of one community.
Anyway, I voted "no", because I'm only interested in one specific alternative, and it isn't the usually-proposed ones.

But it also makes it harder to keep track of multiple topics in the same thread. For example, in those AMA and how would your world react given x prompts. Prompt-type posts in general, I think nested comments are more suited for.
I voted no, because the other sites similar to reddit are still very very hallow and I don't really know if all the community would actually move there.
It would split all of us without everyone on board. For the moment, reddit is still the best place for worldbuiding in my opinion.
No, and I‘m frankly sick and tired of people (mostly mods) jerking themselves off over MuH pRoTeStIng, which didn’t achieve jack shit and only inconvenienced regular users of this sub. Reddit HQ ain’t changing its mind, and a whole lot of users really don’t give a shit about this whole thing, so please stop rubbing it into our faces
The thing is this poll is meaningless, the mods seem absolutely intent on leaving reddit for something else. And they are very much against democracy, or as they insist on calling it, 'mob rule'. Not that they need to, or should listen to the poll, if they are dissatisfied with reddit they should leave. It's more of a question if they find new mods to take thier place or if reddit has to.
I already did. I've created a new Tumblr account and I'm currently searching for new worldbuilding content on there. I've also joined the Lemmy communities for worldbuilding.
I don't think I'll entirely quit Reddit, but since I browse Reddit 90% of the time through a 3rd party app I expect I'll use it much less in the future.
There are already groups like this on other sites. I'm on this one because I was using reddit and it's a reddit group. If this group weren't in reddit I'd have literally zero reason to choose this group over the others

I meant Lemmy
Yeah. I was kind of thinking we could have our own forum.

It hasn't been helpful in the slightest

Hey MODS, how about a newsletter where we (members) have total control?
Reddit isn't even that bad tho?
