I was just browsing a thread on c/nfl looking for new mods. There were multiple 12+ year Redditors there offering to help.
Got me wondering. There are 14,000 of us in this community. How many of us are ten year plus users who have just had enough?
Edit: I didn’t expect this post to be as poignant as it became. There are so many of you… I can’t reply to everyone. I’m an 11 year user and have modded something like 150 subs over the years. I’m really sad too, but I’m finding that lemmy has most of the content I’m looking for, just needs more comments.
The API was a big blow, but removing awards on past posts and deleting coin balances is really dumb.
My account had just turned 11 years old when all of this started. After RIF didn’t let me log in any more I just quit reddint entkrelt. The RIF app itself is still installed in my phone though, as a memento. Even if reddit were to turn back on its decision, I don’t think I’d want to go back at this point. Reddit is as good as dead for me.
RIf still works if you log out of your account though you can’t interact with Reddit anymore
It feels like being permabanned from all communities, and the fact that I no longer have access to my joined subreddits. All in all, they are giving me the message that I am no longer welcome.
