I left a couple of months ago. Couldn’t be happier.

The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.

People who don’t know how to sign up to sites that don’t have “Log In with Facebook”.

The website got flooded with Facebook-types years ago. A lot of the audience are just Facebook mums and dads that found out their anti-vaxx rants weren’t being heard anymore, and TikTok kids who just laugh the cat pics and upvote blindly without commenting.

I go there to watch war videos and porn but 100% of my commenting has moved to Lemmy.

A lot of people. Many just don’t care that much about where they get cute cat pics from.

This time of year, I really miss the college football sub, but I have not succumbed to temptation.
