I left a couple of months ago. Couldn’t be happier.
The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.
gentrification of reddit.
‘you will all be replaced by yuppies who dont know what privacy is’
If you wanna keep your bookmarks and the subreddits (communities) that you’re subscribed to before deleting your account, I made a free tool to help you store and offload that data.
It’s called Reddit Account Manager, and it’s 100% free.
You can also use it to manage your Lemmy account(s), of course.
whats wrong with personalized ads? is it much different from booking different TV channels for different audiences?
I guess they didn’t make API millions by charging usage fees? Scraping the bottom of the barrel now while people use the site less and less.
I bet the they lost single percent of people. And most use it and don’t care.
It’s a shame that so many people will still use it.
I still use it, just far less, only really for a couple of subreddits that just don’t have the same experience here. The mobile app is so shit though that it forces me not to use it on my phone!
