As I participate in the boycott today and going forward, the biggest thing I’ve found I’m going to miss is the availability of discussion on topics. Obviously Reddit was never a bastion of truth and fact, but being able to find a discussion on a topic I was researching was always nice. For example today I was looking around for a fightstick / looking to see if one would be worth it for my use case, and Reddit was always the first result. What is everyone else unexpectedly missing from Reddit today?
Realizing that almost every single weird thought or idea I’ve ever had was had by so many other people was kind of reassuring. That and the super informed people who were experts on literally anything you could ask(most of the time).
And the inside jokes and reddit celebs like shittymorph and shittywatercolour.
