So yeah… maybe the turtle slowly waking up that he was just a Laptog for reddit and thrown away as soon as they didnt need him anymore ( moderation is allways a volunteer thing and shouldnt be like a 2nd job ).

    I got banned from r/entertainment for criticizing Lizzo’s outfit when the whole crystal flute nontroversy happened, nothing racial, nothing about her weight or about the flute-playing itself, just that I thought her outfit she was wearing looked trashy. BANNED. Reddit has been on the decline for awhile now. I just wish I could filter out ANY news of Reddit on other sites, it’s kind of annoying how much sites like Lemmy.world still lean on Reddit for content instead of trying to do their own thing.

      Oh yeah I hate how many posts are just Reddit links.

      Do people not know you still help by visiting?

      (they don’t, people are dumb 😂)

        Yea, I’ve been going cold turkey since 6/11. I thought the whole point was to NOT GO so that Reddit could see how unpopular its decision was. It kind of feels like people are just not bothering with even trying to protest. I’m sure those that stick around will have a series of annual “that’s it, I’m done” moments coming in the future as Reddit makes more and more unpopular decisions and people just put up with it because they couldn’t even go a few weeks without visiting the site. I’ve already made my peace with the fact that Reddit is gone and I’m ready to move on. At this point I’d be more conflicted if they actually backed down on their stupid API policy and let 3rd party apps back on.
