I feel like I should be yelling at those damned whippersnappers to get off my lawn, with all their Instagrams and Spotifies and Youtubes

Alas, poor Reddit, I knew them well

Same. I don’t begrudge the people who want to salt and burn their Reddit history, but I’m leaving my old posts up for anybody who might be helped by them (plus most of them are just shitposts anyways)

Thank goodness for that at least. It can’t come soon enough

Dunno, I haven’t seen anything pop up in Firefox running uBlock Origin, on either desktop or mobile (hint hint)

Never assume that “malice” and “incompetence” are mutually exclusive.

Honestly, being one of the dozen or so people who still prefers to do his internetting with a computer rather than a smartphone, the whole app drama doesn’t really bother me one way or another. What DOES bother me is Reddit deciding that they need to force a miserable ad-ridden experience on the people viewing and contributing to their site, plus knowing that if and when this goes through, old.reddit is almost certain to be next on the chopping block. Everything that’s happened after that announcement has only reassured me that getting off of Reddit now is the right choice

Unfortunately, I think you just answered your own question with that.

I’ve been getting notified of replies even when I don’t get tagged

I only went over today cause a couple of the subs I frequent had temporarily opened to ask “Should we stay blacked out?”

Not planning to make that mistake again anytime soon

This is why I haven’t tried to create any new communities/magazines for subreddits that I previously enjoyed (doesn’t help that contacting the mods for those subs would require, y’know, posting on reddit)

(there was a lot more that I could’ve/wanted to put in there)

All of the various mental health meme and [x]_irl subreddits, to make fun of all my intrusive thoughts and overall broken-ness and laugh with other people who are doing the same
