I know we pretty much all hated spez for all the shit he pulled, but a few weeks ago the tone towards reddit itself around here was more neutral. People liked it here on Lemmy a lot better, but people weren’t hating on the old place so much.
Recently I’m seeing this huuuuuuuge surge of just pure fucking hatred leveled at the site itself. Anyone else notice this or is it just me?
I mean, I was there because I thought it was alright. I hated spez for fucking it up and completely screwing his communities over. But I never hated reddit itself, and I still don’t. Otherwise I would’ve left a lot sooner.
Do you personally hate reddit? If so, why?
I do hope it does, I don’t particularly enjoy the hating in general. Kills the chill vibes around here. Which is why I’m trying to understand it better.
I was a post-blackout refugee myself, I’m not OG Fediverse. But the tone in those initial days of migration were overall a lot more chilled out. It’s really not until this past week or so that it feels like the hate machine is firing up.
I was wondering if maybe people were still blaming the hacks on reddit or something, I know that was flying around for awhile.
