You cannot access reddit without either an account, or turning off your VPN. Effectively meaning that it’s difficult to access reddit privately, as they can either track you with IP or with account.
Even alternative frontends like RDX for reddit by @[email protected] don’t solve this issue.
I can’t believe more people haven’t left because of that.
Think about this:
Literally all the value of Reddit comes from the users, and most of the moderation comes from volunteers.
That is, everything that made Reddit useful was provided for free.
Now those jackanapes think they’re entitled to create money based on the free labor of millions of people. And what makes that more infuriating is they had the gall to call those volunteers “landed gentry”.
I mean, that is an obvious bullshit, but I thought there’s something else going on there that makes it shit place nowadays.
I mean - capitalism… of course it’s looking to exploit… they couldn’t be content with the ad revenue…
