Honestly I hope not that many people do this. I get that it feels good to stick it to reddit and we don’t like them profiting off of our content, but there is SO MUCH good information/help that we have sitting on reddit that you just can’t find anywhere else.
I can’t tell you how many times I solved a problem by finding a slightly related reddit comment that I couldn’t find an answer for anywhere else. Going to be sad times when we can’t do that anymore :(
Yea I totally understand that sentiment, I was in that situation too many times. I for one was mostly a lurker who rarely even commented so no big loss there :D
You’re right. It’s a damn shame it has come to this. Reddit is/ was one of the greatest (if not THE greatest) repositories for information/tips/tricks/help guides/random comments that finally help you crack that problem you’d been struggling with for weeks.
But it just goes to show you, never trust something like this to a closed source, private, or for profit entity, because they can randomly decide to screw anyone over whenever they like for whatever reason they deem acceptable.

I understand where you’re coming from but at least The Reddit Community Has Been Archived . Not the same I know, but its there if you need it!

Reddit uses this information (which they gained for free) to run ads and make money.
