its facebook 2.0, just havnt fully become its clone yet. is suspect the next step is eliminating OLD reddit with a few months for logged in users. and then require Facial recognition and valid DL too.
reddit was never good, it was tolerable at best. The fact that in the early days the jailbait sub was allowed to be one of the biggest on the site and was only pulled after national media attention is really all you need to know to reinforce that belief, though we could also point to so much more.
Steve was always going to fuck it up. I recall a incident where he thought it would be cute to directly edit a comment in the database, bypassing the indicator that a comment had been edited after the fact. He never had any kind of good sense.
You are downvoted now for what used to be standard reddit etiquette. That site lost its entire identity. 2 days ago they rolled out age verification in some European countries. So, I naturallt redacted all my posts and comments and left.
They’ll put it back. I did that too and deleted the account, go look now and it’s all there. Oddly they left the last things which were very critical so I doubt they even looked at what was there.
It was good. Long long ago. Entertaining. Infuriating. Educational. For the most part civil.
Now its mostly swamp. it’s the trump era turd swamp. It’s more a cesspool - swamps are great places - trumpville cesspool.
Ending anonymity is 180° out from its starting point. Taken over by corporate it’s like everything else they ‘buy’ - for their profit.
Reddit is now so far away from what made it great in the beginning that it really isn’t even the same site. It just sucks now.
Agreed. It’s midwest facebook now. Corporate reddit.

How did you delete your comments? I’m thinking about doing the same.
There were scripts that would replaced the text and remove the comment, they don’t work anymore after the api fuckery.
You might be able to find one that runs in your browser but it’ll be really slow.
Never had that problem with older accounts. I guess I have to go in there to be permabanned. Shouldn’t take more than a comment or two.
“Israel is doing genocide to the Palestine peoples”, boom. Banned.
he apparently idolizes Musk, so thats whats he aiming for. thats why there have been so many purges, because of musk telling spez to suppress dissent.
He’s a nazi, therefore a sociopathic parasite.
