I'm a fairly removed redditor. I browsed here and there, but only really ever used it used it within the last year. RIF app is all I ever knew. I hated when I'd get directed to the web browser. Never even used their app.
I didn't feel strongly about any of this tbh.
I do now.
Reddit objectively sucks compared to whatever is happening here.
Can’t say I’m surprised. I’m sure they’ll stop people from deleting their own content off soon too. It’s amazing how short sighted they can be burning the community that gave them the decades of free content that made Reddit popular.
I just realized this was a subreddit made for strictly only Lemmy.world server, please leave all your comments to here instead: https://lemmy.world/post/179804 as I cross-posted to over there.
