    I would be worried if I planned on using Reddit anymore. I’m done with it and Spez. They can do as they please. I plan to focus on growing this community into something to replace it. I’m honestly already tired of seeing posts about Reddit. It’s like the community broke up but we are still following them on Facebook. It’s not healthy.

      Already happened i was a member on a lot of dry herb vape sub and reddit forced us to all become NFSW or was going to ban the subs that was the first red flag.

      Now some of those sub are starting to migrate in the fediverse and i’m happy about it so fuck reddit i was only a lurker anyway as the “community” feeling of reddit have been gone for sometime already.

      I’m done too. The 3rd party apps thing has shown Spez to be a liar and double-dealer. All trust in Reddit is now gone.

      Agreed, even if Reddit fixed every single problem with their site today, I would not be going back. I like the smaller community here, and want to see it grow.

      Yep. I’m only going to be there occasionally for the more esoteric subs, but Spez has really turned out to be a double-dealing liar, and I feel dirty every time I peek there.

      Here, kbin land is far more chill!

      The protest/blackout is ongoing, new things like the decision to remove protesting moderators and the interviews on CNN are happening each day, and it still feels like Reddit’s future is in limbo. Like with any relationship that lacks a clear end point, this one will keep limping on as individual Redditors hit their own personal breaking points (or choose to kiss and make up with their abusive ex).

      For my part, I’m still casually following r/ModCoord and the subs for my favorite 3rd party apps to stay in the loop, and will probably keep doing so (without interacting with the rest of Reddit) until it feels like there’s a more tangible consensus. The API goes into effect on Saturday, July 1st, so these next two and a half weeks will be full of popcorn moments.

      Totally agree and had this thought first thing this morning. I don’t like that we Reddit migrators have come over here and blown up this platform with our baggage. I’ll be ready to see it go away.

        I agree, though it is a healthy and normal way for people to process transitions. As a bigger example, when people leave religion, it’s really common for them to seek out spaces with like-minded people to unload some of that baggage.
