I fully expected Reddit to fight dirty, but it’s still surreal watching the iron hand come down against the community. Silver lining, I hope this helps accelerate the migration to the fediverse.

I remember ten years ago sharing beers with admins who visited London. Back when there was a push for developing local communities and Global Reddit Meetup Day. There was good vibes and a feeling of mutual respect.

I met my wife through Reddit.

I still have so much affection for the site in my heart.

It’s just wild to me how much has changed.

Really glad I never got that Snoo tattoo now.

Reddit isn’t the first online community I watched outgrow itself into the grave. I guess it’s just the cycle of social media. Here’s hoping this time’s different.
