Oh god how did this get here I am not good with computer
I’m enjoying it so far. I like that it’s not a direct one-for-one clone of reddit (not that it was intended to be). It feels like a combination of older reddit (> 10 years ago, when it wasn’t as active) and old school forums (like how older posts will bump if there’s activity). It makes me want to be more active vs being a lurker.
I have no intention of going back to reddit. I’ve already deleted RIF from my phone. The 3PA thing was the last straw for me, but I felt like reddit had been going downhill for a while and I think I had been looking for an excuse to fuck off but couldn’t quit cold turkey. Whatever good intentions that company might’ve started with, they’re just a greedy corporation now. They haven’t cared about their users for a while (which is interesting because their users are what create their content. Reddit itself doesn’t create anything).
13 year old account checking in. I’m undecided if I want to fully delete or not yet. I want to at least hang on until the end of June when shit will really hit the fan (if it does). I’m always up for watching a train wreck.
I deleted all my comments and submissions today (except for a comment thanking the RIF dev and a couple of comments shitting on /u/spez). Not that I was ever a particularly popular redditor, but I’ll be fucked if they’ll earn another penny on any content I’ve created.
It’s almost impressive how badly they screwed up the library. Absolutely hate it. It’s just a massive chore to use versus how it was.
