Reddit - Dive into anything
redd.it

Will this undermine most of what makes IAmA special? Probably. But Reddit leadership has all the funds they need to hire people to perform those extra tasks we formerly undertook as volunteer moderators, and we’d be happy to collaborate with them if they choose to do so.

    IDK, I started using reddit 15 years ago. Maybe you had to contrast it to what it was back then to see it clearly.

    For instance it was open Source, which they abandoned about 10 years ago.

    Reddiquette was a thing that was actually observed, and you were reminded of if you broke it. Have you even heard of it?

    e/The_Doonald could never have existed if reddiquette had been observed. Pau who worked to prevent such things were fired in 2014.

    The new layout is pandering to bling and short attention span, a repeat of mistakes made by Digg, that hurt more valuable content, and increase the amount of comments that are nothing more than noise without value.

    Cofounder Alexis Ohanian was instrumental in the firing of Victoria, which till this day has no reasonable explanation why she was fired.

    There are few real values left at reddit, but fortunately they exist here. ;)
