I was accused too. Till they saw my 11+ years of old comments, then they thought I was a sold account.
I don’t know if it’s scary or stupid.

Reddit was an essential part of the internet. Thankfully it’s been mostly archived.
Losing the data from Reddit would be a catastrophe on the level of the library of Alexandra.
The people who run Reddit know all of this and thus the reason they want some much money for things like the API.

I’m glad that I don’t use Reddit anymore, unless forced.
Even when forced, I feel dirty.

I was a bit over 12 if I remember right.
I don’t miss it at all.

We all want to have an immortal legacy. Any good he’s ever done is going to be overshadowed.
You can build 1000 bridges and fuck one clown. You won’t be known as a bridge builder but a clown fucker.

It’s sort of what World of Warcraft did with gold.
The gold farms were making TONS of money selling illegal gold in much the same way upvote farms are making a killing.
Upvotes are free for them to give, and they would have a money printer on their hands.

That whole crypto thing is scary as hell.
Unless you hold your secret keys then you don’t really own your money.

Someone should answer the phone because we all fucking called it.
What’s next in the Reddit bingo?
The removal of old reddit?
Limiting the number of posts we can see per day as a normal user?
Buy upvotes?
The slippery slope logical fallacy doesn’t count when there is actual factual evidence.
Before June 2023, I was a mod on several Reddit communities for about 13 years and outside of Reddit since the turn of the century. I just kinda stepped back once the Reddit BS happened.
10 months later, my happiness and over all quality of life has improved. Not only am I no longer stressed (bye bye moderation based nightmares!), but I have way more time to dedicate to my passions and goals.
I thought that dedication to holding together a few niche communities and battling the “bad guys” defined me and gave me a sort of immortality.
I was VERY wrong.
Our great grand kids won’t be trolling reddit archives, telling everyone how “cool” grandpa was.
The greatest thing I ever did to improve my QOL was step away from moderating and leading communities on the internet as a whole. Doubly so if they involve political talk.
