Ima miss /r/perth, but honestly even without the current API nonsense I’ve been uncomfortable with reddit’s trajectory for a while.

    Lol, i think i just replied to a message from you yesterday on there! :)

    True, i’s actually talking about Reddit comment sections more generally than r/Perth. But true, it was every couple of weeks a rant about bad drivers would appear. I suppose for the same reason as why radio phone-in hosts always use it as a topic. An easy driver of viewer/listener engagement.

      I’m enjoying reading the complaining about mortgages and rent prices though. Feels like a common undercurrent of frustration and anger that permeates us normies.

        Its so common. But thats because its a problem that people know isn’t being addressed properly. All we’re getting is ‘Supply side’ slogans that don’t address the underlying issues. Anyway, i could rant about it for ages also, 😂
