Some of Reddit’s most popular communities have posted open letters to the company with a series of requests regarding many key issues at the heart of the recent protests on the platform. They want a response by June 29th.

      Yeah, the behavior by spez and the company as a whole afterwards was abysmal. Trying to gaslight Christian was the last straw for me (lucky he had the call logs). It went from “I’m going to use reddit much less because my third party app is being killed” to “I actively hate this company and will go out of my way to avoid giving them any money at all”.

      The actions of the admins after the initial blackout were why I moved over to Lemmy.

      Honestly it’s too late to turn back.

      The apps have already announced they are shutting down. Any attempt now to reverse course and beg the app developers to not leave would be making them return with a Damocles sword constantly hanging over their head.

      Reddit showed their hand already, and it’s just all Wild Draw 4s. They are here to ruin everyone’s day and they cannot be trusted.

      100% agree. There’s nothing they could do at this point. I’m done.

      Yep, I feel exactly the same. I created and moderated about 10 smallish communities as well as moderating a few large ones 500k+, 2 of which i was the sole active mod. I’m done, admins can go fuck themselves.

      undefined> Reddit is a cesspool.

      I totally agree with you. In my case, I did not realize how much of a cesspool it was. I just got used to sifting through trash. I started using this platform and it has more interesting content. It has less content, but I think that’s OK. Sometimes less is more. I don’t feel like I’m scrolling endlessly through posts that are either lazy, superficial, or just not worth reading. Over here I’ve decided to avoid communities that look like they are migrations from subreddits because, low and behold, one of them had the same low-quality content with the same users posting the same kind of crap. For me, Lemmy is refreshing.

      You think lemmy is immune from becoming a cesspool? If the masses come here itll become one soon enough. Every social media does.
