A week ago, I wrote about the top Reddit alternatives because Reddit (the company) is having a civil war with its users due to an abysmal increase in API
That’s what this is all about. Nobody’s trying to change spez’s mind. A lot of people were begging for a Reddit alternative for YEARS, now we finally have an opportunity to make one. They could roll back the API pricing tomorrow but for me it wouldn’t matter.
yeah reddit is dead to me. i’ve always felt that social media sites should be considered a commons where companies cannot profit off of the content
this was just the catalyst for a lot of people to be exposed to this idea and now the idea is exponentially spreading. we’re still in the early days, but I think this is the future. or at least it’s one potential future
reddit was amazing a decade ago. dunno what all happened but it became a cesspool of toxicity and abuse of power that i was just waiting for another alternative to come along and save us OGs from.

A lot of people on the Internet just got mean.
Or alternatively, the small minority of mean Reddit users ballooned.
