    It’s a platform whose time to die has arrived. The corpos are getting their hands on it, and nothing punk can be done with it anymore.

        My hope is that all this drama makes the IPO not happen.

        Nah, it would be better if IPO happens and the company’s value evaporates overnight.

        Probably wouldn’t happen, but one can dream.

          Go look at Robinhood’s stock chart since its IPO.

          Robinhood got on our bad side, remember? We did some hella punk shit on Reddit.

          Nowadays you can’t use reddit like that. Bots, paid shills, shadow bans, silenced subreddits, co-opted mods, and now you can’t even take your sub dark in protest. You’re either a profitable end user or entirely unwelcome.
