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.

    16 years on Reddit here but I was never a big user. In its early days it was a less toxic version of Digg but then Reddit itself eventually became Digg.

    I wish these sites would use a more Slashdot-like moderation system. Not everyone deserves an equal vote especially with all the bots running around. Or Ars-like if you absolutely can’t live without the pure democratic system.

      After deleting my reddit account I’ve gone and dusted off my ancient slashdot account

      If CmdrTaco still owned and ran Slashdot, I’d be over there today.
