It is just sad to see another good thing, build up collectivly by people in their spare time comes down due to cooperate greed.
I will use reddit as long as the subs I'm mainly engaging in haven't migrated and as long as there is a secure & a/tracking free way of accessing Reddit, even if it is desktop only
Bit then again I'm happy that truly free and non commercial alternatives get the attention they deserve
I'm permanently suspended anyway, there's no way back. They somehow find me if I create a new account lol
@Acetamide I don't understand why though. We live in a capitalist system, and therefore Reddit has to make money in order to survive. On the current path, Reddit won't exist AT ALL. So we either get a Reddit with some fees that devs don't like, or no Reddit at all.
I feel that. Reddit's bit of an addiction for me. I don't use other social media so it became my one stop shop for news, inspiration, and to connect with all the little niche intrest.
Oddly, I was frequently just doom scrolling r/all to see what was going on the the world. And when I ran out of revent stuff if just sort by new. Super unhealthy behavior.
Hopfully this transition will help me slow down a bit and get back to reality.
I miss what I lack, but reddit was also going stagnant. Time to build something greater. Decentralized, but moderated, social media is an interesting idea.
Lemmys devs' political... "Leanings" sure concern me though
It's so stupid that people would react so emotionally as to relate their feelings to a breakup. This should be a concern to each and every one of you. It's a website. You can get your dopamine hit elsewhere, with TikTok and other sources being still available.
The rage from the Reddit community has been surprising but this broken form of emotional regulation is embarrassing.

You can get your dopamine hit elsewhere, with TikTok and other sources being still available, so why the breakdown?
